Breathe Deeply from Time Traveler by The Bigness

I lie awake in early hours shuffling pieces around, over and over
I comb the hills for days wondering how to get back home
While there’s still sun, while we’re still young
Called my doctor, told him, “Doc, I’m scared I’m fading out.
It’s dark where I’ve been living.”
He said, “Nurse, get in here now.”
“Get her a pill, get her a bill, and get her out.”

No one ever taught us to breathe deeply
No one ever taught us how to breathe
No one ever taught us to breathe deeply
And I catch myself trying now, to learn how

I lie awake when it’s too quiet, am I dying?
My whole body’s buzzing
I fight this chatter, fists out, crouched down, boots bound,
Fresh round, but I’m tired of the battle

There’s a calm I’ve been chasing
There’s a lie I’ve been told
There’s a truth in your face, dear, I’ll hold onto
