Breathing (Kate Bush)
Outside
Gets inside, ooh
Through her skin
I‘ve been out before
But this time it‘s much safer in
Last night, in the sky, ooh
Such a bright light
My radar send me danger
But my instincts tell me to keep
Breathing
(out, in, out, in, out, in...)
Breathing
Breathing my mother in
Breathing my beloved in
Breathing
Breathing her nicotine
Breathing
Breathing the fall - out, in
Out, in, out, in, out, in, out, in...
We‘ve lost our chance
We‘re the first and the last, ooh
After the blast
Chips of plutonium
Are twinkling in every lung
I love my
Beloved, ooh
All and everywhere
Only the fools blew it
You and me
Knew life itself is
Breathing
(out, in, out, in, out...)
Breathing
Breathing my mother in
Breathing my beloved in
Breathing
Breathing her nicotine
Breathing
Breathing the fall – out, in
Out, in, out, in, out, in, out, in
Out, in, out, in, out, in, out...
(out!)
In point of fact it is possible to tell the difference
between a small nuclear explosion and
a large one by a very simple method. the calling
card of a nuclear bomb is the blinding flash that
is far more dazzling than any light on earth - brighter
even than the sun itself - and it is by the duration
of this flash that we are able to determine the size
(what are we going to do without? )
Of the weapon. after the flash a fireball can be
seen to rise, sucking up under it the debris, dust,
and living things around the area of the explosion,
and as this ascends, it soon becomes recognisable
as the familiar mushroom cloud. as a demonstration
of the flash duration test lets try and count the
number of seconds for the flash emitted by a very
small bomb, then a more substantial, medium-sized
bomb; and finally, one of our very powerful,
High-yield bombs
What are we going to do without?
Ooh please!
What are we going to do without?
Let me breathe!
What are we going to do without?
Ooh, quick!
We are all going to die without!
Breathe in deep!
What are we going to die without?
Leave me something to breathe!
We are all going to die without!
Oh, leave me something to breathe!
What are we going to do without?
Oh, god, please leave us something to breathe!
We are all going to die without
Oh, life is – ...
