breathe again

(album: in defense of my own happiness, Vol. 1 - 2020)

The Devil's in the basement in my home
A flight of stairs is way too close
He comes for me when I'm alone
Collecting debts I didn't owe (That I don't)

Follow me down where the waters run deep
I'll let you drown in the worst of me
If my intentions are good
Why can't I come clean
If heaven's above
Where does that leave me?

Am I looking for revival?
Am I dressed in other's sin?
Hold my breath until I'm honest
Will I ever breathe again?

When the world's so heavy I can't stand
I close my eyes and start again
Though my heart is in my hands
I won't break
Give me faith to bend

Am I looking for revival?
Am I dressed in other's sin?
Hold my breath until I'm honest
Will I ever breathe again?
Again, again, again

Am I looking for revival?
Am I dressed in other's sin?
Hold my breath until I'm honest
Will I ever breathe again?

Am I looking for revival?
Am I dressed in other's sin?
Hold my breath until I'm honest
Will I ever breathe again?
Will I ever breathe again?
Will I ever breathe again?
