Breathe Lyrics by Madhops

A New Brand of Hurt

2000

As the dust clouds part, I can see the serpent
And he speaks in tongues that twist and stain souls
And I can hear the tainted speak with a child's voice
And they beckon me by name
Saying: "Come, for we have won."

Breathe
The past is gone
But I'm still trying to gain control
Why must I try?
When all who've died remain alive

Give in, give in
The past is gone
Give in, give in
The past has died
I'm still searching for something to show me the way
Although, astray I'll go

I can see the torrid one raise and laugh in vain celebration
For the ignorant breathe and killers wear badges
Yet I hold out my arms and embrace a dream

Speak of lasting ties that bind the swollen
And feed the flies
Truth comes not from them
The bleed the stricken to feed their sins

Give in, give in
The past is gone
Give in, give in
The past has died
I'm still searching for something to show me the way
Although, astray I'll go

White
White
White
Black is just as white

White
White
Black is just as white

White
White
Black is just as white

White
White
Black is just

Prepare for the coming apocalypse and breathe

We amount to nothing to the policeman
We amount to nothing to the policeman, yeah

So why am I drowning?
Why am I twisting?
Why are you cursing my name?
Why am I screaming?
Why are you shouting?
Why?
Why?
(Why!?)

Give in, give in
The past is gone
Give in, give in
The past has died
I'm still searching for something to show me the way
Although, astray I'll go

Give in, give in
The past is gone
Give in, give in
The past has died
I'm still searching for something to show me the way
Although, astray I'll go

White
White
White
Black is just as white

White
White
Black is just as white

White
White
Black is just as white

White
White
Black is just white

Black is just as white
Black is just
