I know what I wanted

E A

I know what I wanted

E A E A

I know how I wanted this to be

Go down to the water

Jump down on the water

Walk above the water, leaving me

This is not my time, brother

It is cold in heaven

and I'm not sprouting wings.

E A E A

I'm drowning (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

Me (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

I'm drowning (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

Me, yeah

See those birds, you know the birds

They don't look to heaven

They don't need religion, they can see

They go down to the water

Drink out of the water

Fly above the water, leaving me

This is not my dream, sister

It is cold in heaven

And no one's coming after me

E A E A

I'm drowning (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

Me (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

I'm drowning (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

Me, yeah

You know I'm tired

Cold, alone and tired

Nothing's going to save me, oh I can see

I can't say I'm fearful

I can't say I'm not afraid

But I am not resisting, I can see

I don't need a heaven

I don't need religion

I am in the place where I should be

I am breathing water

I am breathing water

And everybody's got to breathe

E A E A

I'm drowning (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

Me (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

I'm drowning (Breathing ourselves)

E A E A

Me, yeah
