Breathe In (Intro) 02:10
lyrics

[Pastor Art Gordon] We love it when the sun is out We often find it pretty sad and disappointing when the sun is in fact covered And all we can see above us is clouds Cloudy days have gone on to symbolize tough times, sadness, disappointment, and depression In fact, even on days now when it is cloudy you can sense that more people seem to be even sadder on a cloudy day They might have money in their pockets, but if it's a cloudy day, sometimes the sense we get from other people is that they are in fact quite sad. (Breathe in, breathe out) Cloudy days are the days when you go to bed hungry and you wonder how you might feed yourself and your children when tomorrow comes. (Breathe in, breathe out) Cloudy days is when big momma is in the ICU and when that loved one ends up passing away, cloudy days are days when you have to gather their clothes and go down to the funeral home so the funeral home can dress your loved one up and get prepared for the funeral service. (Breathe in, breathe out) Cloudy days are the days when you find yourself at the cemetery and they lower your loved one into the ground. (Breathe in, breathe out) Cloudy days are the days when the relationship you been involved in, it looked so good and everything was working out only to realize that what you thought was good for you, it wasn't good for you at all. (Breathe in, breathe out) [Annie] Breathe in, breathe out [Pastor Art Gordon] Beloved, if you've never experienced a cloudy - I'm sure you have - but if you haven't experienced a cloudy day, just keep on living. Because cloudy days will come

New day, and I wanna be alone Don't call, 'cause I've turned off my phone Something about it stresses me out And it's too late now to leave a message at the tone Because I need something good To prove to myself that I'm where I should be But it's so lonely Yeah, I'll get there slowly And oh, changing is too hard to do (mm) But oh, you know I would do it for you On repeat, same routine I got everything that I need Don't ask me for anything Yeah, I got everything I could ever need And oh, changing is too hard to do (mm) But oh, you know I would do it for you I need a change because I'm in a dark place I can't see a clear way out of the deep end I need a change because I don't think that I can face An endless spiral every weekend I'm sleeping too late and it's ever enough Lose track of the days 'til the 18th comes and I have to face the grief alone again Some days I don't deserve any love And I don't recognize the girl I was in the end Is that what change is? I need changes, oh On repeat, same routine I got everything that I need Don't ask me for anything Yeah, I got everything I could ever need And oh, changing is too hard to do (mm) But oh, you know I would do it for you And oh, changing is too hard to do (mm) But oh, you know I would do it for you

Too Scared To Ask (ft. j. hurlock) 02:18
lyrics

I've been waiting for the moment to pass But it never does (it never does) And I've keep falling yet I'm too scared to ask If you feel in love (la da da da) Used to dream of a big parade and a thousand people shouting out my name I did, but I don't anymore Why the hell did you notice me? There's a thousand girls I wish I could be I guess I just wanna be yours Because lately I've been thinking that I want this time with you to last forever We could be together, mm Daydreams come and daydrеams go But real life is one I know You and mе pretend to be just friends and it's killing me I've been waiting for the moment to pass But it never does (it never does) And I've keep falling yet I'm too scared to ask If you feel in love (la da da da) I've been waiting for the moment to pass But it never does (it never does) And I've keep falling yet I'm too scared to ask If you feel in love (la da da da)

I've heard the things that they've been saying They're just lies they made up to keep me far from you Eyes don't wander, they're fixated on those butterflies you give me It happens every time I'm gonna wait as long as it takes me Don't leave me hanging tonight Over and over again (give a little) Because I miss you as more than a friend (live a little) Cry myself to sleep at night Something hеre just don't feel right Over and over again Again and again, again and again Call mе a stalker or just call me awkward I wish you would call me either way Because it's not my fault that you look so good I'd take you home if I thought I could I should retreat but you're so sweet I just want a taste I'm gonna wait as long as it takes me Don't leave me hanging tonight Over and over again (give a little) Because I miss you as more than a friend (live a little) Cry myself to sleep at night Something here just don't feel right Over and over again Again and again, again and again (Again and again, again and again) I don't wanna do this anymore Just stealing glances on the dance floor Can't you tell that I wanna be more? I wanna be yours, yeah Over and over again (over and over again) Because I miss you as more than a friend (I miss you more, I miss you more) Cry myself to sleep at night Something here just don't feel right (It don't feel right) Over and over again Again and again, again and again

We Can Pretend 02:02
lyrics

[Verse 1] You ever wake up and you're fast asleep? Like you just wake up but you're still in a dream? I know the feeling of missing something you never had Do things get better in real life ever, it's sad (We can pretend) [Chorus] I'm in too deep Still asleep Can't believe it's just a dream Don't wake me, wake me up From wherever I'm dreaming from Set the scene but it's not what it seems This world's too beautiful for reality I know it has to end But we can prеtend, we can pretеnd [Verse 2] I'd like to find A brand new peace of mind Because I'm lost inside the world we left behind (world we left behind) [Chorus] I'm in too deep Still asleep Can't believe it's just a dream Don't wake me, wake me up From wherever I'm dreaming from Set the scene but it's not what it seems This world's too beautiful for reality I know it has to end But we can pretend, we can pretend [Outro] I know it has to end But we can pretend, we can pretend

Fine. 02:26

The words between us hang so gently Between things said and things implied I understand your load is heavy But you say you're doing fine Just fine, doing just fine You're doing fine Are you doing fine? I know I may not have the answers (but I will listen) To the questions you ask me (take all the time you need) But if you speak then I will listen (I will listen) Put words to this weight and be free (take all the time you need) Be free, be free (free, free, free, free) Be free, be free (free, free, free, free) (free, free, free, free) (free, free, free, free)

Breathe Out 04:06
lyrics
buy track
It's crazy how fast it all changes Filling up the spaces with a fresh breath of air There's stress and a little bit of tension I don't know what to do or how to even care I know when every single second feels the same and There's feelings that don't even have a name, yeah Not a lot that I can do Can you explain it? Why is everybody busy on the weekends? Does everybody think that I'm insane? Yeah, I wish that I knew You gotta just breathe out Just breathe out Lеt the stress flow out of you Settle into something new, yeah I'm changing every single rule that I've been breaking Every ounce of courage I've been faking It's time to say goodbye We're so far from our fantasy Where we wake up when we fall asleep If it were easy, would we even try? You gotta just breathe out Just breathe out Let the stress flow out of you Settle into something new, yeah Breathe it out Breathe it out, yeah You gotta just breathe it out Breathe it out You gotta just breathe out Just breathe out Let the stress flow out of you Settle into something new, yeah You gotta just breathe out Just breathe out Let the peace come to you Settle into something new, yeah
