The Song

Story.

The song is called Last Breath, an acoustic serenade, painful one, that speaks to and about someone who is close to their last breath. It dabbles with the painful thoughts and  questions that grieve someone who is living their last years, weeks or days. This slow-paced track filled with harmonies of both vocals and guitar strings sings of the strength of a heart holding on, longing to be held, longing to forgive, be forgiven and not forgotten.

Lyrics

Verse 1
You were a hero once
A confidant
Now you wonder
If you are still the same

When all is said and done
Love has come and gone
Will you count what you've lost
More than you've gained

Pre Chorus
But you'll find the secret
Of life unfold
In the heartaches of
Letting go
And throw yourself
Away in hope
Knowing the day will come

Chorus
When you hear your heartbeat
Whisper away
You're finding it harder to stay
But when all that you know
Is to keep holding on
The last breath's the hardest to take

Verse 2
So take in every moment
With every breath
When you give grace away
There's more grace left

Find your peace in the middle
Of open hands
Find the sweetness when you
Forgive, forget

Pre Chorus
And you'll find the secret
Of life unfold
In the heartaches of
Letting go
And throw yourself
Away in hope
Knowing the day will come

Chorus
When you hear your heartbeat
Whisper away
You're finding it harder to stay
But when all that you know
Is to keep holding on
The last breath's the hardest to take

Bridge
Watch the flame turn to flicker
Feel the fire leaving your eyes
And you're running out of ember
Don't you fear, love, we'll keep it alive

Chorus
When you hear your heartbeat
Whisper away
You're finding it harder to stay
But when all that you know
Is to keep holding on
The last breath's the hardest to take
Oh, when you hear your heartbeat
Whisper away
You're finding it harder to stay
But when all that you know
Is to keep holding on
The last breath's the hardest to take
Oh, the last breath's the hardest to take

So you wait..
