Something To Be Proud Of (lyrics)

Moments triple past the broken glass
Of the previous night's bliss
You talk too much, you have too much
You think too much, you soar too much
All in the name of earning fortune's kiss

Fireworks explode in mind
You're racing to the tune of time
You take the lead, and now you're feeling this
And sometimes it's okay to get
A little over ex-cite-ed
When it's deserved, as you are sure to guess

Take an honest breath and learn to breathe
Command the stars, they will obey
You slew the dragon, seized the day
Reward yourself and scream out loud
You've done this and it's made you proud
Take an honest breath and learn to breathe

Tremble, stumble, gamble, crumble
Till your smile is vain but humble
I cannot stop you from what is denied
And I will protest in the name of craft
That life is something to be laughed
But it is not something that is to be defied

So if you're wise, you'll take this chance
To grab the prize and take this bow
I cannot stress the importance
Of trying to live in the here and now
Simmer till you ache with less
And smile, it's yours, release your stress
You've gained much more than what your heart allows

Take an honest breath and learn to breathe
Command the stars, they will obey
You slew the dragon, seized the day
Reward yourself and scream out loud
You've done this and it's made you proud
Take an honest breath and learn to breathe

Reward yourself and scream out loud
You've done this and you're fucking proud
Take an honest breath and learn to breathe
Take an honest breath and learn to breathe
Take one goddamn breath and learn to breathe
