Keep Breathing Lyrics & Chords By The Delgados

I wonder if he knows the pleasure that he shows
I can't seem to hide from the sounds around me
I wonder where she goes dressed up in those clothes
We just watch her drive away

A woman sees her friends: continuous distraction
She fills up her days while shes waits for phone calls
A life in evidence is evidently lonely
We all need a tale to tell

Just another list of consequences of things that we do
Just another hit of happenings that we have to live through
In and out of all the reasons and all the 'whys' and 'wherefores'
We just want to keep on breathing

My view is compromised with undernourished eyes
They watch and they wait for an altercation
These boxes on the row, these overpriced abodes
Will somebody give them life?

We occupy a space with barriers and fences
There's no line of sight into this protection
Forgive us all a cheat, it's just another symptom
We all need a tale to tell

Just another list of consequences of things that we do
Just another hit of happenings that we have to live through
In and out of all the reasons and all the 'whys' and 'wherefores'
We just want to keep on breathing
We just want to keep on breathing

We will watch and learn
We will watch you perform
Waiting behind the scenes
Telling the tale

I wonder if he knows how far his pleasure goes
It all falls apart at the stroke of midnight
I wonder where she goes, now she's in some clothes
We just hear here drive away

Just another list of consequences of things that we do
Just another hit of happenings that we have to live through
In and out of all the reasons and all the 'whys' and 'wherefores'
We just want to keep on breathing

Life is just a list of consequences of things that we do
Just another hit of happenings that we have to live through
In and out of all the reasons and all the 'whys' and 'wherefores'
We just want to keep on breathing
