When I feel troubled or afraid
Can't face another working day
When the darkness multiplies
When I feel cut down to size
And life's the only thing worth living for

I breathe in suffering, I breathe out love
I breathe in suffering, I breathe out love

When I need something to rely on
And there's nobody left to try on
When I'm feeling less than one
I take some comfort from the sun
When life's the only thing worth living for

I breathe in suffering, I breathe out love
I breathe in suffering, I breathe out love

The sun is shining through the trees
And there's the possibility
That I'm a diamond in the rough
I would be gratified to know
I could be satisfied to show you
Only love is good enough

I'll be your sunset going down
Hide in the shadow of the underground
I will make a nest of thorns
In an overcoat that's torn
I'll take a minute, then I'll take one more

I breathe in suffering, I breathe out love
I breathe in suffering, I breathe out love
I breathe in suffering, I breathe in suffering
I breathe in suffering, I breathe out love
I breathe out love
