Deep Breaths

This is the story of a kid who never did learn how to breath And strangely enough Other than that, he was normal He did everything else other kid kids did Like playing or read There was something wrong with him His lungs were too big And maybe too small The doctors never figured it out So they did nothing at all They said "Take a deep breath," but he couldn't And they told him that his body shouldn't Be like this But there was something in his chest And he was trying his damn best To fit in with everyone who could breathe Breathe Several years later He decides to run away from everything His home and his family He couldn't take the pressure Both quite literally and figuratively His world was collapsing He doesn't know how To cope with it all 'Cause no one ever taught him to get up From a fall They said "Take a deep breath," but he couldn't And they told him that his body shouldn't Be like this But there is something in his chest And he is trying his damn best To fit in with everyone who can breathe People don't understand how to sympathize With something they can't relate to Walk two moons In someone else's shoes Breathe Just breathe
