[Verse]
Oh, sweet lungs, don't fail me now
Your burning has turned into fear
It drills me in my every step, I'm moving quick
But you're always on my heels

[Pre-Chorus]
Just one more breath, I beg you please
Just one more step, my knees are weak
My heart is sturdy, but it needs you to survive
My heart is sturdy, but it needs you

[Chorus]
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
I know that you are strong enough to handle what I need
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
My body needs a reason to cross the line
Will you carry me there one more time?

[Verse]
Steady lungs, don't fail me know
I feel you bursting, but you won't let me die
Fill me up with every step, I'm feeling sick
But I'm leaving it behind

[Pre-Chorus]
Just one more breath, I beg you please
Just one more step, you are not weak
My legs are sturdy, but they need you to survive
My heart is sturdy, but I need you
[Chorus]
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
I know that you are strong enough to handle what I need
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
My body needs a reason to cross the line
Will you carry me there once more?
Once more?

[Bridge]
I have reason to believe that I have victories to taste
I can feel them on my teeth, upon my lips and in my chest
I can roll them on my tongue, they are more supple than defeat
I feel the tension in my lungs, and every move is filled by my resolve to

[Chorus]
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
I know that you are strong enough to handle what I need
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
My body needs a reason to cross that line
Will you carry me there one more time?
