Breath of Man Lyrics

There's a silence that brings me here again to soften my heavy tread

There's a power source beneath our skin, you can use it if you care

There's an energy force that holds me here. Gravity seeks revenge

But it's the currency that worries me. It's holding out a hand

Breath of Man

It's the hard and fast, the push and pull that signify a place

But the smoke creeps up, heavy stranglin' limbs and wraps its legs around your waist

Your tiny human lungs and weak beatin' hearts. Give you body to the race

Soil and bones with a sun in gold – she exhales a hurricane

Breath of man, breath of man, breath of man, breath of man

Breath in breath out, fog the window up - finger help within the frame

It's gone too far we've burnt our bridges down. Fall before the mammals' grave

Inhale, stand tall, line up and wait. The rank decides upon your fate

Your brittle lungs hold less than you said they would, fall in line behind the whale

Breath of man, breath of man, breath of man, breath of man

Can't you see the faults; you've let your morals slip

Took the prize before the race

It's not up to me but this rock you see, for she owns our greedy race

And the breath of man

The small breath of man

Breath of man

Breath of man
