Lyrics Bird York - Breathe Deeply

Girl's scattered
Ripped to pieces
By her brother's
Murder
One thought too many
One thought too much
Her gentle levy
Burst

Lives with her mother
In a basement
With their seventeen years of blame
Can't stop the knowing
"I should have's" clawing
It is the circle
Of her pain

Breathe deeply
You're not alone
Breathe deeply now
Breathe deeply, he's safe with God, rest your head now

She has no father, no hero husband
To help her gather
Her ends
So she imagines
The DJ loves her
Lives for the music he spins

Radio humming
Two fingers drumming
Over the red scar bracelet she once made

Her mind keeps playing her brothers slaying
And she's scattering once again

Breathe deeply, you're not alone
Breathe deeply now
Breathe deeply, he's safe with God, rest your head now

She says, "I dream, I dream about him
He is lost and all alone
How can I sleep until I free him"
She keeps stumbling
Under the weight of his ghost

Breathe deeply, you're not alone
Breathe deeply now
Breathe deeply, he's safe with God, rest your head now

Breathe deeply, you're not alone
Breathe deeply now
Breathe deeply, he's safe with God, rest your head now
