Lyrics

I die, you die Softly and so alive No one else has seen me cry Ghetto child I hear you breathing See your heart beating Promise this time's dreams are on me Ghetto child Driven like the lambs Hiding from the hands She breathes She breathes She breathes Out the door she slams No one understands She breathes She breathes She breathes Breathes a ghetto child Paper flowers So grey and golden Sent the circus of your soul Ghetto child Book of pictures No words for it Something scribbled in the snow Ghetto child Driven like the lambs Hiding from the hands She breathes She breathes She breathes Out the door she slams No one understands She breathes She breathes She breathes Breathes a ghetto... Child born after Coltraine died But before that one small step Relieved when no one realized That's as high as man could get We'll never take a bigger step From the ghetto child Driven like the lambs Hiding from the hands She breathes She breathes She breathes Out the door she slams No one understands She breathes She breathes She breathes...
