Fall Song lyrics

It's too nice to breathe

and I was feeling dirty

till now.

Now witness me silent.

Now I've got over thirty

good reasons to live.

It's too nice to breathe,

no longer I'm embarrassed

to have lungs like these.

In fall, the sky is dark

as summer's urges 

soon submerge,

but beautiful to see

is your reflection on me,

is your reflection on me.

There's a spark in the air,

the oxygen is burning,

but we are safe.

Returning from work,

you know the names 

of every streetlight

by your mother's driveway.

It's too nice to breathe,

I know you're sick 

of the same skyline

and hate the evergreens.

But someday they will fall

as their base is choked 

by frightening worms

whose blind organs can see

your reflection on me,

your reflection on me.

A glow is cast orange

on every single taxi

no one will ride.

And when I am weary,

the statue will ungrip me

and the leaves will die.

It's too nice to breathe.

I'm freer than the living,

if that's what they're called.

Now it's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe.

It's too nice to breathe,

It's too nice to breathe.
