"Lungs" lyrics

Halos are hanging like a picture
Sweetheart is pushed under the river
Wake up, you're high off of a clean slate
You're taking hits, just like a light weight
Caught up, we're dust up in the twister
Who knew a winner could be bitter
I swore off every kind of dark vice
Stopped chasing every kind of cheap high

Oh, I won't let go, let go of me
I got these lungs inside my body, and it's still hard to breathe
Oh, I won't let go, let go of me
I got these lungs inside my body, and it's still hard to breathe
Still hard to breathe

So tongue and cheek, say what you want to
Give it a week, this shit will fall through
It's always only temporary
Most trauma's all hereditary

Oh, I won't let go, let go of me
I got these lungs inside my body, and it's still hard to breathe
Oh, I won't let go, let go of me
I got these lungs inside my body, and it's still hard to breathe
Still hard to breathe...

Cheat death, and now I'm a believer
Half Asian, half overachiever
I've got a legacy inside me
It's gonna kill me or define me
Know better than to take a short cut
I never trusted any good luck
I know that high is gonna find me
I'm living for that silver lining

Oh, I won't let go, let go of me
I got these lungs inside my body, and it's still hard to breathe
Oh, I won't let go, let go of me
I got these lungs inside my body (I got these lungs inside my body)
Oh, I won't let go, let go of me
I got these lungs inside my body, and it's still hard to breathe
Oh, I won't let go, let go of me
I got these lungs inside my body, and it's still hard to breathe
Still hard to breathe
