With Every Breath

With every breath
We seek our true selves
And we listen to the words of others
And we shape our lives by them

With every breath
We seek true love
And our hearts get broken
And we become afraid

With every breath
We try to find the lie in love
And we are apart, but feel close
And yet, we hurt all the same

With every breath
You and I become closer
And we forget what we have heard
And we start to find ourselves

With every breath
I find that you and I are different
And yet, I know that this is right
And it's so obvious, I'm a bit frightened

With every breath
I find myself closer to you
And here we are, so far apart
And yet, our hearts start to heal

With every breath
I know I have been wronged
And I know you were too
And yet, we are no longer afraid

Because we know...

With every breath
Of Life there's Death
And dwelling on what could have been
And what might be, is no way to live

So take my hand
Pull me close, hold me tight,
And kiss my lips
And lets die together

With every breath
