(breathe in all the air)

spinning, arms spread with my hands
as I dive into the pacific
I flood the shorelines

and I exhale
causing the oceans' endless waves
as I emerge
shaking the wreckage from my hair
with my hands

I want to breathe
life into the Dead Sea

as this rainforest
falls beneath my knees
I want to breathe
life into the dead sea

below, where is your boat?
you are slow, you are slow

I will play until the sky is black
breathe in all the air
exhale and choke the land with carbon
from where I stand
I can see the curvature of the earth
and I want to make it flat

I will play, the sky is black
I will play, the sky is black
