Between Two Lungs Lyrics

Florence and the Machine

Between two lungs it was released The breath that carried me The sigh that blew me forward
'Cause it was trapped Trapped between two lungs It was trapped between two lungs It was trapped between two lungs
And my running feet could fly Each breath screaming We are all too young to die
Between two lungs it was released The breath that passed from you to me That flew between us as we slept That slipped from your mouth into mine It crept between two lungs, it was released
The breath that passed from you to me That flew between us as we slept That slipped from your mouth into mine It crept
'Cause it was trapped Tapped between two lungs It was trapped between two lungs
Now all the days of begging, the days of theft No more gasping for a breath The air has filled me head to toe And I can see the ground far below
I have this breath and I hold it tight And I keep it in my chest with all my might I pray to God this breath will last As it pushes past my lips, as I gasp, gasp

Such a clever song by a totally influential and underrated artist. What a shame that songs like this will never be fully appreciated due to the brain dead bimbo's and juveniles that fill our charts with hideous traditional pop and one hit wonders. When will they ever learn?
