Stavesacre - A Place Where I Can Breathe lyrics

Artist: Stavesacre

album: (stāvz'ā'kər)


I only wanted such a little thing
Only simplicity
And now that I am who I was taught to be
You have abandoned me
But I held so tightly to every word you said
That's the price of the respect you've always demanded
And all those things I've gathered through the years
Have no value here
I need to find a place where I can breathe
Somewhere high above this empty wasteland
Where the air is clear
And I need to find it while i still can
In a world like this
How can you wonder at my sadness?
Now I hope for something beautiful
But I feel trapped under your waves of wreckage
And if I cannot claw my own way through
I fear one day I will be just like you
I need to find a place where I can breathe
Somewhere high above this empty wasteland
Where the air is clear
And I need to find it while I still can
In this land of vacant stars
In the backseats of desperate cars
In single-mother topless bars
We ache for something more
Your sons and your daughters are unwilling martyrs
To devils, priests, and other thieves
And their wars and rumors of war
I need a handgun and a hand grenade
To protect me from those who keep me safe
Yet I remember your straight face
Some day this will all be yours
I need to find a place where I can breathe
Somewhere high above this empty wasteland
Where the air is clear
And while I still can
I need to find a place where I can breathe
Somewhere high above this empty wasteland
Where the air is clear
And I need to find it while I still can
While I still can
