[Verse 1]
Once in a while
I see myself
No longer enchanted
By the future or the past
I break the spell

[Verse 2]
Once in a while
It's crystal clear
The shadows, the light
Even my scars, overnight
They disappear

[Chorus]
If every breath is sacred
God, I want to breathe
Deep enough to feel something
Deep enough to believe

[Verse 3]
Once in a while
It all sinks in
I try to keep my head
Above the water
God knows, but I can't swim
[Verse 4]
Once in a while
I put up a fight
I write another song
And sing it with all of my might
Renegotiate the terms
Of this terminal life
I'll put up a fight

[Chorus]
If every breath is sacred
God, I want to breathe
Deep enough to feel something
Deep enough to believe
That every breath is sacred
God, I want to breathe
Deep enough to feel something
Deep enough to believe

[Bridge]
Please show me how to breathe deep
Please show me how to breathe deep

[Chorus]
If every breath is sacred
God, I want to breathe
Deep enough to feel something
Deep enough to believe
