Breathing - Maria Haukaas Storeng

I was lost and hope was gone

I was sinking like a stone

Like a ship wreck’s stranded hours all alone

Saying always well

So no one else could tell

Heavy shackles round my feet

Getting ready for the next defeat

But somehow you came stumbling into my life

And made me realize

And now my feet are lifted slowly from the ground

I’m breathing

No, nothing holds me down

I’m breathing

I thought that I would drown

I’m breathing

I’m still breathing

It’s kinda funny how things change

And how I’m free at last

From all these chains

And how this weight upon my shoulders disappeared

With you just being here

And now my feet are lifted slowly from the ground

I’m breathing

No, nothing holds me down

I’m breathing

I thought that I would drown

I’m breathing

I’m still breathing

Once the dark was all I knew

Now the sky is turning blue

I see it, I feel it

My world’s turned around

And I’m breathing

I was lost and now I’m found

My feet don’t touch the ground

(I'm breathing)

No, nothing holds me down

(I'm breathing)

I thought that I would drown

(I'm breathing)

I’m still breathing

I’m still breathing

(I'm breathing)

(Breathing)

My world is turning round

(I'm breathing)

I’m still breathing

I’m breathing
