Rather Be Breathing

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Everybody's looking for the high life Living the dream but it don't feel right So lost inside this fantasy I'm scared it's gonna swallow me [Chorus] You can offer me all the fortune and the fame of a king With a castle so high that no one else can come in And you can tell me that I don't have enough of these things But I'd rather be breathing No, I'd rather be [Post-Chorus] I'd rather be breathing I'd rather be breathing I'd rather be breathing I'd rather be breathing [Verse 2] Standing at the foot of a mountain Only walked a couple steps but who's counting? If there's anybody up there Won't you let me stay a while? [Chorus] You can offer me all the fortune and the fame of a king With a castle so high that no one else can come in And you can tell me that I don't have enough of these things But I'd rather be breathing No, I'd rather be [Post-Chorus] I'd rather be breathing I'd rather be breathing [Bridge] You can offer me (You can offer me all the) Silver and gold (You can offer me all the) You can offer me [Chorus] You can offer me all the fortune and the fame of a king With a castle so high that no one else can come in And you can tell me that I don't have enough of these things But I'd rather be breathing No, I'd rather be [Post-Chorus] I'd rather be breathing I'd rather be breathing I'd rather be breathing
