Breath And Burning Lyrics - Phish

Breath and Burning 

We are made of sand 

Slowly turning 

At the waves command 

And what does it matter 

If the nightmares all came true? 

The black clouds that scattered across 

The sky so there's nothing left we can do 

Let's celebrate while the hurricane 

Throws salt and water into the room 

The canary died 

The healer lied 

The yellow fields disappeared too soon 

Mid-air voltage blooms and grows 

Unstoppable, it's instant heat 

And as sinners plea on bended knee 

We'll be dancing here for days 

Breath and Burning 

We are made of sand 

Slowly turning At the waves command 

And what does it matter 

That the end's in sight? 

We're not going gently 

We're gonna rage with Page at the dying of the light! 

The sudden unexpected fate 

Of sunken ships 

Was our future path 

Your string of beads did nothing to 

Prepare for you what was sure to pass 

Shadow wheels in shipping lanes 

The angry winds blew straight from hell 

And the tortoise pulls his head inside his shell 

Breath and Burning 

We are made of sand 

Slowly turning 

At the waves command 

And what does it matter? 

It'll be over soon 

Our heads on a platter 

So lets spin in the light of the moon 

We've still got the light of the moon 

We'll dance in the light of the moon 

Breath and Burning 

Breath and Burning 

Breath and Burning 

Breath and Burning
