"Rebreather" lyrics

Ill-adapted to the elevation
Having only ever summited false peaks
I rely on my guide
When my head starts feeling light
When my chest starts feeling tight

To rebreathe
Rebreathe into
Rebreathe
Rebreathe into me

Harnessed by the kind resuscitation
Buttressed up and out of the crevasse of the past
I rely on my mind
When my hands stop feeling
When my feet stop feeling

To rebreathe
Rebreathe into
Rebreathe
Rebreathe into me
Rebreathe life into me

Now when I belay
The aches and pains abate
A new stream of air
Allays the old sense of malaise

Now when I descend
For real or just pretend
I can depend on a friend
With a warm breath to lend

I drop onto the cold facade
Lean into a bold glissade
This wind could blow ice into anyone's lungs
I'm grateful that mine have thawed
I'm grateful that mine have thawed
