Don’t forget to breathe
You can’t go on, be just as happy
You’re confused
Gotta get out of here
Wanna just disappear and start anew
It's them who’s wrong
Just can’t see the girl inside
So when you feel down and out
Baby just turn around, and
(chorus)
Don’t forget to smile
When you cry then try to think of me
Don’t forget to smile
You don’t need to hide
Don’t forget to breathe me
Don’t forget to feel me
When you’re on your knees
Don’t forget to breathe
You’re out of breath, out of patience
Out of mind
They cut you with words and lies
You wish you could close your eyes and leave behind
The jealousy, wish they could see
The hurt inside
So when it grinds you down
Baby just turn around, and
(Chorus)
It’s their ignorance that is your chance
For you to prove them wrong
All you need is to breathe
Is to feel you can see this through
(Chorus)
When you’re on your knees
Don’t forget to breathe

Pretty Flamingo
On our block all of the guys call her flamingo
Cause her hair glows like the sun
And her eyes can light the sky
When she moves she walks so fine like a flamingo
Crimson dress that clings so tight
She's out of reach and out of sight
When she walks by she brightens up the neighbourhood
Oh every guy would make her his if he just could
If she just would
Some sweet day I'll make her mine, pretty flamingo
Then every guy will envy me
Cause paradise is where I'll be
Pretty flamingo pretty flamingo
When she walks by she brightens up the neighbourhood
And every guy would make her his if he just could
If she just would

Fragile
Empty moonlight, heavy moon
Puts the sun to bed too soon
Hungry half truths overflows
Betrays the silver ring she chose
Encouraged kisses, teasing touch
Kills a thirst to learn this much
Bliss abandon, velvet trust
An open heart confused by lust
She didn’t need me,
I needed time to just hold on
And so she bleeds me dry
Cannot pretend that I’m that strong
(Chorus)
In a fragile world
I have agile faith
And my fragile bones
Won’t break in haste
So the serpentine girl
With the turpentine words
Won’t light me up, won’t burn me out
Not today
Loving lavished, a lover scorned
Petals red with blood from thorns
Careless promise, empty words
A smile from tears, a grace from curse
Stolen whispers, jealous rain
Wet the lips of truth in vain
Straining anchor, a kiss denied
Builds a dam to hold her lies
She didn’t need me,
I needed time to just hold on
And so she bleeds me dry
Cannot pretend that I’m that strong
(Chorus x2)
It’s my saving grace
It’s my fading grace
