Are You Breathing? Lyrics

This is my nothing time
Tired of always being told what time.
Don't follow too close behind
the one that walks before you.

There are the insect times,
everybody pushing toward
the front from behind.
That's when you realize
they're only acting civilized.

You can talk to me if there's anything you need.
This belongs to everything that breathes.
Are you breathing?

Some call them silent times
but the sound that nothing makes is almost deafening at times.
If you want to keep your mind
you'll give yourself your nothing time.

So this is your state of mind.
It's obviously something dissimilar to mine.
Maybe it's I who's blind,
The one that thinks he walks before you.
