I jolt awake up in freezing cold sweat
I jolt awake up from a nightmare so bad
I saw the ocean go high and flood our home
No one survived. The two of us are left alone.
.
And there's water
Twenty thousand feet high
And there's orcas
Slapping tails in the sky
And, for two people, the air is not enough
In the dark I lie still
.
Seizing the sound of us breathing
I'm listening to our own breathing
A thing I never realised before:
We share just one breathing between us
One breathing
.
Now I've almost forgot what is that gas
We were breathing and could not value less
Just to share it with you, a minute worth
But you're asleep, you don't know
.
That it's water
Twenty thousand feet high
That it's orcas
Slapping tails in the sky
And, for two people, the air is not enough
In the dark I lie still
.
Seizing the sound of us breathing
I'm listening to our own breathing
A thing I never realised before:
We share just one breathing between us
One breathing.
