Lungs
Navigating Storms: Finding Strength and Independence in 'Lungs'
Lyrics
I built a boat to find my way to solid ground
I constructed a boat in an attempt to navigate to stable ground.
I always hoped you'd pull me up before I drowned
I always hoped that you would rescue me before I succumbed to difficulties.
I never thought I'd end up lost at sea alone
I never anticipated being adrift at sea all alone.
So I made it my new home
As a result, I transformed it into my new dwelling.
And through the waves my sails may tip
Despite the challenges in my journey, my sails may waver.
But I am safe inside my ship
Yet, I feel secure within the confines of my ship.
And I won't sink this time
I am determined not to sink this time.
And I don't need your breath in my lungs cause I found mine
I don't rely on your support to breathe because I've discovered my own strength.
I used to fear the wind that's rocking me to sleep
I used to be afraid of the wind that lulls me to sleep.
It wakes me up with little kisses on the cheek
It gently awakens me with affectionate kisses on the cheek.
And when it's cold and I can't see a sign of land
Even when it's cold and there's no visible sign of land,
I pretend that I can
I choose to believe otherwise.
And through the waves my sails may tip
Despite potential disruptions in the waves, my sails may sway.
But I am safe inside my ship
Nevertheless, I feel protected within my ship.
And I won't sink this time
I am resolute not to sink this time.
And I don't need your breath in my lungs cause I found mine
I don't require your assistance in breathing because I have found my own strength.
Through the awful noise it makes
Despite the unsettling noise it produces,
My heart gets stronger when it breaks
My heart becomes more resilient when it experiences hardships.
And I won't sink this time
I am determined not to sink this time.
And I don't need your breath in my lungs cause I found mine
I don't depend on your breath for my lungs because I have found my own.
Yeah even in the darkest night
Even in the darkest night,
I will breathe myself back to life
I will revive myself through my own breath.
And I won't sink this time
I am resolute not to sink this time.
Cause through the waves my sails may tip
Despite potential disturbances in the waves, my sails may sway.
But I am safe inside my ship
Nevertheless, I feel secure within my ship.
And I won't sink this time
I am determined not to sink this time.
And I don't need your breath in my lungs cause I found mine
I don't need your breath for my lungs because I have found my own strength.
