Artist: Portishead

Lyrics

It's a fire
These dreams they pass me by
The salvation I desire
Keeps getting me down

'Cause we need to
Recognize mistakes
For time and again

So let it be known
For what we believe in
I can see no reason
For it to fail

'Cause this life is a farce
I can't breathe through this mask
Like a fool
So breathe on, sister, breathe on

From this oneself
Testify or tell
It's fooling us now

So let it be known
For what we believe in
I can see no reason
For it to fail

'Cause this life is a farce
I can't breathe through this mask
Like a fool
So breathe on, little sister, breathe on
Oh, so breathe on, little sister, like a fool
