You shouldn’t go this way
It’ll take you anywhere but home
I can’t get a single thought straight
When you and me are in one room
I know you wish me dead
I know you hate that I still breathe
You’re only such hate-filled
Cause you’re unable to succeed
You feel so unhappy
You think that everyone else wins
You’re easy to be angled
You’re just so easy to convince
When they lie about our future
About our daughters’ and our sons’
And you don’t see this country
Looks much like (back in) 1931
Yeah - you could be part of the majority one day
But I’ll stand in your way for as long as
I still breathe! Sometimes I wish I wouldn't
I watch the news each night, although I know I rather shouldn't
I still breathe! And I can't stop the thinking
Not a single night in 20 years without the drinking
I still breathe! Yes, society’s unfair!
Sometimes I want to grab a gun and point it on somewhere
Point it on you! But I won’t do
And that’s the main difference between me and you
When people give up everything because they have to flee
And once they’re here they get attacked by guys like you and me
And I still breathe!
I fear to be like Grandpa was in ’33... NO!
I still breathe - yeah, it’s true: I'm pessimistic
Well, history has shown there’s no way to defeat statistics
I still breathe - For three minutes long
You’ve listened to and still don’t know the meaning of this song and
I still breathe - now politics won’t do it!
And I’d rather play guitar though I don’t have an app to tune it
I still breathe - now if you’re honest to yourself
There’s nothing greater than a quickie on the kitchen shelf!
And I still breathe! I still breathe!
I still breathe! I still breathe!
I still breathe! I still breathe!
I still breathe! I still breathe
