kill to breathe

April 23, 2011

Don't you love it when you hear a song that just HITS you?


I was supposed to go to the Sara Bareilles show in Asheville on Tuesday night.  That didn't happen... I was bummed.  Tears were involved.  For some horrible reason I had the dates confused in my head.  When I realized that all 3 of my calendars (yes... three) had the CORRECT date I was even more angry.  I guess I wasn't meant to be at that show... it still makes me sad though.  


Moving on... 
this song is so beautiful.  Raw.  Sad.  Truthful.  Perfect.  I love it.  


...& if I was at the show it would be one of those songs that brought tears to my eyes.  One of those songs that whenever you hear it live you have the goosebumps on your arms and you eyes become all blurry and you just soak it in.  


Enjoy.  Take in every word.  
Oh, and ignore the creepy chick...? Not sure what that's about?




Car is parked, bags are packed, but what kind of heart doesn't look back
At the comfortable glow from the porch, the one I will still call yours
All those words came undone and now I'm not the only one
Facing the ghosts that decide if the fire inside still burns

All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe
Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching for something
Out of breath, I am left hoping someday I'll breathe again
I'll breathe again

Open up next to you and my secrets become your truth
And the distance between that was sheltering me comes in full view
Hang my head, break my heart built from all I have torn apart
And my burden to bear is a love I can't carry anymore

All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe
Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching for something
Out of breath, I am left hoping someday I'll breathe again

It hurts to be here
I only wanted love from you
It hurts to be here
What am I gonna do?

All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe
Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching
All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe
Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching for something
Out of breath, I am left hoping someday I'll breathe again
I'll breathe again
