The Deepest Breath

Cold the hand that once held yours

Furrowed face now forever empty

She was old before she’d lived her youth

Hollowed out in a land of plenty

Did you dream last night child?

Did your dream stay with you?

Oh the city sucks the wild from your mind

So hold your dream before it hits you

And wear your dreams, they’re all that fit you

We dig these graves now every day

Eternal homes denied in lifetime

And the rich men wave our lives away

Can’t see a soul without a pricetag

Did you dream last night child?

Did your dream stay with you?

Oh, this town can burn the bright of your mind

So hold your dream before it hits you

And wear your dreams, they’re all that fit you

Sing friend if you’ve a song to sing

For your songs are a glimpse of a flickering freedom

We’re not yet spent, we’ve a world to win

there’ll be no king but it’ll be our kingdom

Did you dream last night child?

Did your dream stay with you?

Oh this land can leech the light from your mind

So hold your dreams before it hits you

And wear your dreams they’re all that fit you

Will you sing on now, love

You’ve got songs a plenty

Oh they’ll try to tear the truth from your mouth

So sing on strong, make sure they’ve felt it

Sing on now for your soul’s not empty

Sing on, sing on,

In your song flies the highest hope of all

Dream on, dream on,

Our dreams are the deepest breath we draw

Did you dream last night child?

Did your dream stay with you?

Oh this land can leech the light from your mind

So hold your dream before it hits you

And wear your dreams they’re all that fit you
