breathe it all in Lyrics

I'll tell you this is what i know:

Life is brutal

Life is brief

Its tragedy and grief

It ends in the ground

And starts in compromise

But if you can love it than you've done

If you can love it then you've won

It you can love it then you've done

All there is to do

So before the stars burn out

And time slips away

And before our bodies wear out

And the years have their say

And before we all fall down

Well, it's a lot to feel

So i'll breath it all in

And i'll breath it all out

There are streets in Philadelphia

Where houses once stood

Families were born, and life was good

But the people had to leave

And the houses all fell down

Grass grows in the street now

And nothing can be found

So for all the things we do

And for all the things we say

Nothing can stop us from turning out that way

There's a phone in my pocket

And a map up on the wall

One makes this world seem bigger

And one makes it seem so small

So we'll talk on the phone

About what we did today

Teach each other our lives

And make this distance go away
