After released Bang Bang and Revolution Radio music videos, a new calm Green Day song titled “Still Breathing” can listen here [lyric video]
Still Breathing tell about a junkie on the verge of death, a gambler about to lose everything and a wounded soldier on the front lines are all characters in a slow-building, unsettling track.
“That was a very heavy song,” says Armstrong. “Sometimes I run away from being too heavy. But sometimes it just comes out that way.”
“[chorus] I’m still breathing on my own,… at some point, we’re all going to have to be on life support,” he added “As time goes on, your thoughts get darker.”
Song lyrics : Green Day – Still Breathing
I’m like a child looking off in the horizon
I’m like an ambulance that’s turning on the sirens
Oh, I’m still alive
I’m like a soldier coming home for the first time
I dodged a bullet and I walked across a landmine
Oh, I’m still aliveAm I bleeding? Am I bleeding from the storm?
Just shine a line into the wreckage, so far away, awayCause I’m still breathing
Cause I’m still breathing on my own
My head’s above the rain and roses
Making my way, my way
Cause I’m still breathing
Cause I’m still breathing on my own
My head’s above the rain and roses
Making my way, my way
My way to youI’m like a junkie tying off for the last time
I’m like a loser that’s betting on his last dime
Oh, I’m still alive
I’m like a son that was raised without a father
I’m like a mother barely keeping it together
Oh, I’m still alive
Am I bleeding? Am I bleeding from the storm?
Just shine a line into the wreckage, so far away, away
Cause I’m still breathing
Cause I’m still breathing on my own
My head’s above the rain and roses
Making my way, my way
Cause I’m still breathing
Cause I’m still breathing on my own
My head’s above the rain and roses
Making my way, my way, my way…
As I walked out on the ledge
Are you scared to death to live?
I been running all my life
Just to find a home that’s for the restless
And the truth that’s in the message
Making my way, away, away
Cause I’m still breathing
Cause I’m still breathing on my own
My head’s above the rain and roses
Making my way, my way
Cause I’m still breathing
Cause I’m still breathing on my own
My head’s above the rain and roses
Making my way, my way, my way…
Cause I’m still breathing
Cause I’m still breathing on my own
My head’s above the rain and roses
Making my way, my way
My way to you
