Approaching Nirvana - Keeps Me Breathing

You are all the things
that scare me
and all the love
that’s in between.
I come undone
when I’m lying in your arms.

Yeah you know how
to keep me close.
Too much could be
an overdose, but
equilibrium
is everything you are.

When I’m falling down
it’s easy to let go
‘cause every time I reach
you’re standing below.
Lift me with helium.
Fill me with oxygen.
Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.

When I’m up too high
I’ll always be alright
because I know
that you are by my side.
You are my life support,
my respiration.
Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.

Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.

Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.

In the dead of night
when I can’t see
and a tidal wave’s
falling over me,
I rush to swim
but I’m still washed away.

(Oh) Oh I’m sending out
an SOS
and gasping for
my final breath
but before I can inhale
you save the day.

When I’m falling down
it’s easy to let go
‘cause every time I reach
you’re standing below.
Lift me with helium.
Fill me with oxygen.
Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.

When I’m up too high
I’ll always be alright
because I know
that you are by my side.
You are my life support,
my respiration.
Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.

Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.

Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.

Oh you are everything
that keeps me breathing.
