U2 - Breathe Lyrics

Sixteenth of June, nine o' five
Door bell rings, man at the door says
If I want to stay alive a bit longer
There's three things I need you to know, three

Coming from a long line of traveling
Sales people on my mother's side
I wasn't gonna buy just anyone's cockatoo
So why would I invite a complete stranger
Into my home? Would you?

These days are better than that
These days are better than that

Every day I die again and again, I'm reborn
Every day I have to find the courage
To walk out into the street with arms out
Got a love you can't defeat, neither down or out
There's nothing you have that I need
I can breathe, breathe now

Sixteenth of June, Chinese stocks are going up
And I'm coming down with some new Asian virus
Ju Ju man, Ju Ju man
Doc says you're fine or dying, please

Nine o' nine, St John Divine
On the line, my pulse is fine
But I'm running down the road like loose electricity
While the band in my head plays a striptease

The roar that lies on the other side of silence
The forest fire that is fear so deny it

Walk out into the street, sing your heart out
The people we meet will not be drowned out
There's nothing you have that I need
I can breathe, breathe now

We are people borne of sound
The songs are in our eyes
Gonna wear them like a crown, oh, oh

Walk out into the sunburst street
Sing your heart out, sing my heart out
I've found grace inside a sound
I found grace, it's all I've found
And I can breathe, breathe now
