Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Born and raised
Under the rain and a western wind
Felt the weight
Trying to live up to who they say I am
[Verse 2]
Is it any wonder
Shame comes calling my first name
Is there any question
If I'm the one here left to blame?
[Verse 3]
It's the same fight all over again
It's the same bite breaking on my skin
It's the same light when you let me in
You let me in, you let me in
[Verse 4]
You are the air I breathe
You are the song I bleed
[Verse 5]
You are the war that I can't win
This is my white flag in the wind
Every word you speak
Is the air I breathe
[Verse 6]
Feel like a contender
Bringing my fist to a pistol war
I surrender
That I need you now when you loved me more
[Verse 7]
It's like an ocean
Over my head and under the light
In slow motion
Tonight
[Verse 8]
It's the same fight all over again
It's the same bite breaking on my skin
It's the same light when you let me in
You let me in, you let me in
[Verse 9]
You are the air I breathe
You are the song I bleed
[Verse 10]
You are the war that I can't win
This is my white flag in the wind
Every word you speak
Is the air I breathe
[Verse 11]
I hear you calling my name out, name out
Is there any other way now
I hear you calling my name out, name out
I got nothing left to say now, say now
[Verse 12]
But you are the air I breathe
You are the song I bleed
You are the war that I can't win
This is my white flag in the wind
Every word you speak
Is the air I
[Verse 13]
You are the air I breathe
You are the song I bleed
You are the war that I can't win
This is my white flag in the wind
Every word you speak
Is the air I breathe
[Verse 14]
Is the air I breathe
