BREATHING LIFE, AS [bad word] AS HONEST WORK
BREATHING LIFE, [bad word] FOR ALL ITS WORTH

YOU WANT TO SEEM TO BE AS FRAGILE AS CAN BE
I WANT TO ROLL INSIDE THAT SHELL YOU CALL MIND

BREATHING LIFE, AS FRAIL AS INSINCERE
BREATHING LIFE, TOO COLD TO SHED TEAR

YOU WANT TO SEEM TO BE AS FRAGILE AS CAN BE
I WANT TO SEE THE THINGS THAT I'M SUPPOSED TO SEE
I WANT TO KNOW THE FEAR THAT SETS INSIDE OF ME
I WANT TO BREATHE THE AIR, LIKE I WAS MEANT TO ON ORDINARY DAYS

YOU WANT TO SEEM TO BE AS FRAGILE AS CAN BE
I WANT TO SEE THE THINGS THAT I'M SUPPOSED TO SEE
I WANT TO KNOW THE FEAR THAT SETS INSIDE OF ME
I WANT TO BREATHE THE AIR, LIKE I WAS MEANT TO ON ORDINARY DAYS
