Out of Breath
Out in the darkness there's a man on his knees
quietly whispering please.
Always thought he'd get away with it all
no one saw him dropping the bomb.
Out of breath and on to the ground
no more words to be found.
The strings were always too tightly bound
and when they break they sound.
In the distance you can hear someone cry
quietly asking him why.
He's in the river trying to get some air
swimming fast and going nowhere.
Out of breath and on to the ground
no more word to be found.
The strings were always too tightly bound
and when they break they make a sound.
So listen closely while I cry
out of time, out of time.
Out of breath and on to the ground
on to the ground, in to the ground.
Out of breath and on to the ground
no more words to be found.
The strings were always too tightly bound
and when they break they make a sound.
So listen closely while I cry
out of time, out of time.
Out of breath and on to the ground
on to the ground, in to the ground.
