Breather from Temporary Spectacle by Efthimi

I've been a thousand things
been a gun, I've been a mother
been one of Saturn's rings
now I'm a breather

But oh, oh, oh, I'm floating out to sea
and I'm peeling in the heat of the sun
and oh, oh, oh, nothing else to be
just the water I breathe in my lungs
oh, don't know how to sleep
with the salt slipping under my tongue
are you a breather?

There are a thousand waves
in a lifetime, in an hour
so are you gonna save?
or will you waste your air?

But oh, oh, oh, nothing else to do
what I wanted I've already done
and oh, oh, oh, if no one's gonna see
then why am I keeping it up?
oh, don't know how to do it
when the many come out of the one
are you a breather?
