Stop Breathin Lyrics - Crooked Rain Crooked Rain - Pavement

Got struck by the first volley 

Of the war in the corps 

Never held my service 

Send 'em a wire, give 'em my best 

This ammunition never rests 

No one serves coffee, no one wakes up 

Stop breathin', stop breathin' 

Breathin' for me now 

Write it on a postcard 

Dad they broke me 

Dad they broke me 

Stop breathin', stop breathin' 

Breathin' for me now 

Write it on a postcard 

Dad they broke me 

Dad they broke me 

I can see the lines open shutters 

And the leaves flocked on a grid 

That's what they made my hero say 

But nothin' gets me off so completely 

Then when you put it down 

Ten feet down in the ground 

Call and response, negative home 

Stop breathin', stop breathin' 

Breathin' for me now 

Write it on a postcard 

Dad they broke me 

Dad they broke me 

Stop breathin', stop breathin' 

Breathin' for me now 

Write it on a postcard 

Dad they broke me
