There's a curse on this place
Run as fast you can
And never look back
If it don't hurt to breathe
Then you're already dead
And you can never come home
You think you been here before
But there's more to what you see
And our rivers run with blood
You watch it disappear
The air is cold and clear
But it's heavy in your lungs
It's easy too, but you had to breathe air to get it right
Yeah I'm leaving you
And we had a good chance to get it right
There's a voice inside the wind
Says this work is never done
Taking everything you can
The island of your future, the future for the taking
Spit into your hands
It's easy too, but you had to breathe air to get it right
Yeah I'm leaving you
And you had a good chance to get it right
What will come of these conversations
Do they fall on callous ears
Can we pick up the line and face it
Will we realize our greatest fears?
It's easy too, but you had to breathe air to get it right
