Jamaica Next

The Movielife

Everything has changed
For the worst, and I can't seem to shake this evil curse
It seems to follow me
It resides with pain and failure
Deep inside my soul it's cold
What can I do when all those inner demons start to burn
And will I start to drag or begin to fall behind

Breathe in, breathe out Survive
I felt condemned to this and I'm not going back again
Start to begin
Breathe in, Breathe out Survive, keep my head above the water
And get my feet back on the sand
Because tomorrow might be all I get

All the smiles we waste
The second time is always said to be much better than the first
So why does it hurt?
Could it be our smiles are nothing but wrinkles on our face
It's such a waste

Feelings were meant to be told, stand out with the cold
And truth stands aside

Breathe in, breathe out Survive
I felt condemned to this and I'm not going back again
Start to begin
Breathe in, Breathe out Survive, keep my head above the water
And get my feet back on the sand
Because tomorrow might be all I get


Let down, betrayed for what I gave, I should have left it alone
Just leave, and wipe the burn from my eyes

Let down, betrayed for what I gave, I should have left it alone
Just leave, and wipe the burn from my eyes

Breathe in, breathe out Survive
I felt condemned to this and
I'm not going back again, Start to begin
Breathe in, Breathe out reset
Because tomorrow might be all I get

    General Comment"Everything has changed for the worst."

    "I felt content to this."

    "Let down, betrayed, for what I gave."

    "Just leave and wipe the burn from my eyes."

    "When feelings that were meant to be told stand out in the cold."

    I think that's how the lyrics go. I also think it's something aside from "All the spots we waste..." smiles maybe...

    General CommentIts just about leaving a bad life behind and making the most of your remaining time thinking that tomorrow could be your last day. The sand could be the good life, and his feet are for walking, so it means to start walking in the good life again. its also about continuing and dealing with problems, dont let them dwell you, "breathe in. breathe out. survive. get my head up on the water."

    Memorythis is the best song ever written. whenever i go through a rough spot i just think "breathe in, breathe out, survive." and i do. i'ts simple, but it works. i wish i had the money, because i'd get those words tatooed over my collar. most times it's all i have.
