more true than ever

It is a sad truth. 

I remember the first time I heard it. It was the Season finale of Grey's Anatomy. There she is, a lady in a wedding dress, Alone. She's crying. I'm crying. Half the world is crying. In the background, you hear it-- the song.  "All I can do is keep breathing" over and over and over." 

"Who sings this song?" 

Google tells me "Ingrid Michaelson" 

Limewire, back in the day when I pirated all my music. 

I listened to the song over and over and over again. 

I cried to the song over and over again.

It spoke to me, it drove emotion. It seems to always fit.  Not in the way of the wedding dress scene in Grey's Anatomy, but for my daily life.  My constant thought, my constant plea. 

And once again, here I am dwelling with this song. 

The storm is coming, but I don't mind. People are dying, I close my blinds.All that I know is I'm breathing now. I want to change the world, instead I sleep. I want to believe in more than you and me. But all that I know is I'm breathing. All I can do is keep breathing.All we can do is keep breathing now. All that I know is I'm breathing. All I can do is keep breathing.All we can do is keep breathing. All we can do is keep breathing now.
