Breathe Life In (2001) Lyrics

And you breathe life in

And you breathe life in

Words used to cut right through me

I'd store them up for my own fuel

I'd imagine all my comebacks

All my brilliant replies

But I'd never say a word

I'd bite my tongue

I shrank into shadows

To avoid all their blows

When anything can sting

It's best to pull yourself in

I shrank into shadows

To avoid all their blows

When anything can sting

It's best to pull yourself in

Soon I climbed into armour

Thought that I was growing up

Stirring all the fires

Let the battles start up

But now you have taught me

You can turn and face the tide

You can stand proud

When strength comes from the inside

You spoke softly to me

You breathed the life into me

You planted the seed that changed me completely now

You spoke softly to me

You breathed the life into me

You planted the seed that changed me completely

Now I

Now I

And now I don't snap back or retract

Or react to every move they make

You stopped the clock and waited still

And breathed life into me

Breathed life into me

Breathed life into me

And you breathe life in

You spoke softly to me

You breathed the life into me

You planted the seed that changed me completely now

You spoke softly to me

You breathed the life into me

You planted the seed that changed me completely

Now I

And now I

Breathe life into me

Breathe life into me

Breathe life into me

Breathe life into me
