Harder to breathe

Lyrics

Kids run out to play
on a stormy day
Ain’t swimming way more fun
when it’s raining?

Kids know how to turn
a losing game around
they say rules don’t define
who is winning

Darker clouds dress the sky
when the army jets fly on by
and just like that youth is over

I’m not broken, just sick of coping
and I’m afraid that I cannot fight all the fires
It’s getting harder to breathe
I’m not aching, just sick of faking
and I’m afraid to reveal that we are the monsters
It’s getting harder to breathe

Please go back to sleep
I don’t want you to see
the fear that beats me up
every night

Please just close your eyes
go hunt those sneaky spies
One day we’ll need your hope
to win the fight

Crumbling homes, flooded play fields
It hurts to know that we’ve done this
but in your eyes weird is normal

I’m not broken, just sick of coping
and I’m afraid that I cannot fight all the fires
It’s getting harder to breathe
I’m not aching, just sick of faking
and I’m afraid to reveal that we are the monsters
It’s getting harder to breathe
