[Verse 1]
And breathe
I want you to be here alive and well
Just breathe
Forget the sound of cars and city hell
If something gets you startled, you can walk it back
Forget you're broken-hearted, get your soul unwrapped
There's panic in the water and sin in the meat
A little life exploding on the quietest street
[Chorus]
Spinning with this lonely world
You gotta put in the right time
Put in the right time
Haven't you heard?
Spinning with this lonely world
You gotta put in thе right time
Put in the right time
Havеn't you heard?
[Refrain]
Spinning with this lonely world
Spinning with this lonely world
Spinning with this lonely world
Oh
[Verse 2]
Just breathe
I want you to ignore that ticking clock
Just breathe
Why operate on dreams and tailored shock?
We can muzzle your emotion and sort you out
An urgent new devotion, yes, the time is now
Stop avoiding mirrors, you can still be fixed
The illusion of forgiveness is a party trick
[Chorus]
Spinning with this lonely world
You gotta put in the right time
Put in the right time
Haven't you heard?
Spinning with this lonely world
You gotta put in the right time
Put in the right time
Haven't you heard?
[Refrain]
Spinning with this lonely world
Spinning with this lonely world
Spinning with this lonely world
Oh
