About

The entire song falls in line with Big Boat’s post-apocalyptic, midlife-crisis-tinged themes. Taking a very stern stance against sampling pessimistic nihilism, however, its lyrics deal clearly with one fully appreciating the good times and opportunities afforded to them in life, without letting the...

Breath and Burning Lyrics

[Verse]
Breath and burning
We are made of sand
Slowly turning
At the wave's command

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And what does it matter
That the nightmares all came true?
The black clouds have scattered across the sky
And there's nothing left we can do

[Chorus 1]
But celebrate while the hurricane
Throws salt and water into the room
The canary died, the healer lied
The yellow fields disappeared too soon
Mid-air voltage blooms and grows
Unstoppable, its instant heat
And as sinners plea on bended knee
We'll be dancin' here for days!

[Verse]
Breath and burning
We are made of sand
Slowly turning
At the wave's command

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And what does it matter
That the end's in sight?
We're not going gently
We're gonna rage with Page at the dying of the light, hey!

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus 2]
The sudden unexpected fate
Of sunken ships was our future path
Your string of beads did nothing to
Prepare for you what was sure to pass
Shadow wheels in shipping lanes
The angry winds blew straight from Hell
And the tortoise pulls its head inside its shell

[Verse]
Breath and burning
We are made of sand
Slowly turning
At the wave's command

[Pre-Chorus 3]
And what does it matter?
It'll be over soon
Our heads' on a platter
So let's spin in the light of the moon
We still got the light of the moon
We'll dance in the light of the moon, hey!

[Outro]
Breath and burning
Breath and burning
Breath and burning
