Jon Hopkins – Breathe This Air feat. Purity Ring Lyrics:
I wake and I miss the sea.
what can I miss the ether.
I sleep and I wish for not a thing at all.
but the rest of the rest will take me.
the rest of the rest that will take me,
breathe air.

now, which of these things matter?
forgive the diceless age.
but none of the ?? will be,
but they are giving fire to me.

(Can you breathe?)

now, which of these things matter?
forgive the diceless age.
but none of the ?? will be,
but they are giving fire to me.

I wake and I miss the sea,
what can I miss the ether.
I sleep and I wish for not a thing at all.
but the rest of the rest will take me.
the rest of the rest that will take me.

now, which of these things matter?
forgive the diceless age.
(Breathe air)
but none of the ?? will be,
but they are giving fire to me.

cause see the air, the earth are not a thing at all.
cause see the air, the earth are not a thing at all.
but the rest of rest.
cause see the air, the earth are not a thing at all.
but the rest of the rest.
cause see the air, the earth are not a thing at all.
