Breathe

Take a deep breath
Until both sides of your heart get numb
Until it hurts a little
Let out your breath even more
Until you feel like there’s nothing left inside

It’s alright if you run out of breath
No one will blame you
It’s okay to make mistakes sometimes
Because anyone can do so
Although comforting by saying it’s alright
Are just words

Someone’s breath
That heavy breath
How can I see through that?
Though I can’t understand your breath
It’s alright
I’ll hold you

Even if others think your sigh
Takes out energy and strength
I already know
That you had a day that’s hard enough
To let out even a small sigh
Now don’t think of anything else
Let out a deep sigh
Just let it out like that

Someone’s breath
That heavy breath
How can I see through that?
Though I can’t understand your breath
It’s alright
I’ll hold you
You really did a good job

NB: Lagu Lee Hi ini menemani padat-padatnya worklife tahun lalu. Betapa menghela napas panjang terkadang diperlukan, terlebih menjelang deadline. Penting pula memberi reward pada diri sendiri atas yang sudah dilalui, misalnya dengan kalimat "It's okay to make mistakes sometimes" atau "You did a good job." Don't be too hard to yourself.
