Just Let Me Breathe Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Open your eyes
And turn off your mind
Step right up folks and you will find (Step right up folks)
A growing trend
An epidemic
Spread with zen
And hypodermics
Yeah
Yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Just close your mind
You can find all you need with your eyes

[Chorus]
The big machines take care of you, until you kill yourself
And then the sales go through the roof
Calculated, formulated
Feed my head with simple thoughts
And let me breathe instead of being taught
All bottled up and tearing at the seams, I'm bored
Just let me breathe

[Verse 2]
A daily dose of eMpTyV
Will flush your mind right down the drain
Shannon Hoon and Kurt Cobain
Make yourself a household name
Yeah-eah
Yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Just close your mind
You can find all you need with your eyes

[Chorus]
The big machines take care of you, until you kill yourself
And then the sales go through the roof
Calculated, formulated
Feed my head with simple thoughts
And let me breathe instead of being taught
All bottled up and tearing at the seams, I'm bored
Just let me breathe

[Bridge]
Strike up your best angst ridden posture, woah!
Manufactured anger, ah
Let's not forget my legacy
All my heroes have failed me
Now they're dead and buried, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
Just close your mind
You can find all you need with your eyes

[Outro]
The big machines will take care of you
Until the fashion fades
And the checks go through
My bank roll's red and my face is blue
And still they'll turn their backs on you for someone new
Feed my head with some real thoughts
And let me think instead of being taught
I'll say things you won't believe
Just stand back
Just let me breathe
