Lungs Songtext
von Papermoons

I′ve been holding my breath since you walked in
My lungs were burning with air, then they caved in
To my chest, bony ribs, I confess, I'm a martyr for you
With my hands, I will construct you
With my mind, I will protect you
I′ll build the walls, I'll lay the floors
And hang the doors, I will call you home
In your life, you will forget me
In your mind, you will omit me
To be the one, I'll do what I can
To hold your hand, I will be a man
And I will lay you down
And I will lay you down
And cauterize your wounds
Cauterize, cauterize, you caught my eye In due time, we will create a light
To shine on through the cold airless winter nights
When darkness comes, from shade to dark
You′ll flip the spark ′til embers glow
In our eyes, we will reflect the light
With our legs, we'll walk ′til we lose our sight
When morning comes, from dark to bright
We'll get outside and move along
And I will lay you down
And I will lay you down
And cauterize your wounds
Cauterize, cauterize, you caught my eye
Hold my breath and fill my lungs
′Til the blood rush back to my hands and toes
