[Verse 1]
He spent his life
Sitting down, averting eyes
Too weak to forge his own ties
Now it rings like a distant bell
But when the curtain fell
The distance broke their spell
[Chorus]
Take a deep, deep breath and sigh
Put up a peaceful kind of fight
Don t forget what this life feels like
Make it last for a long, long time
[Instrumental]
(x4)
[Verse 2]
Make way for the new regime
Taking care of all his needs
Pulling all your toxic weeds
Now he s free from all the past stress
But his mind still reeks of death
No room for shallow breath
[Chorus]
Take a deep, deep breath and sigh
Put up a peaceful kind of fight
Don t forget what this life feels like
Make it last for a long, long time
[Instrumental]
(x4)
[Key Change]
[Bridge]
Time will stop, and time will burn
But over time you ll know one truth it hurts to learn
Joy is still in you, you ll have to discern
Whether or not it s real
[Instrumental]
(x4)
[Chorus]
Take a deep, deep breath and sigh
Step back before you fight
True life is in a different sky
It ll last for a long, long time
Take a deep, deep breath and sigh
Step back before you fight
True life is in a different sky
It ll last for a long, long time
[Outro]
(x2)
