[Pre-Chorus]
My breath has been weighted for so long
My hands are fated to stay strong
Can’t make you feel it how I see it
Just give me a minute

[Chorus]
I can’t quiet my mind, quiet my mind
Like sleepwalking through the day
When the color feels so vibrant
Still half-asleep
I can’t explain
But, the air feels so right
Like the world is activated
When tinted air is here
My heart is activated
In this tinted air
In this tinted air

[Verse 2]
Now I feel it everywhere
In the earth
In the ocean
In the air
There is nothing I can do
You want me to be quiet
It’s impossible
It’s like asking the ocean
To stop being wet
It’s like asking the air
To cease to exist
Don’t know what you expect
But I’ll try to stay close and sweet
So tired, could sleep a whole year
Stuck somewhere between
Between and nowhere clear
Color fills my head
When tinted air is here

[Pre-Chorus]
My breath has been weighted for so long
My hands are fated to stay strong
Can’t make you feel it how I see it
Just give me a minute

[Final Chorus]
If you could see it
Then you would feel it
What happens when tinted air is here
My heart is activated
And I’m taken somewhere else
The air feels so right
Like the world is activated
When tinted air is here
My heart is activated
In this tinted air
In this tinted air
In this tinted air

[Verse 1] My head was somewhere else Like stained clouds under rain Why does everything feel unsteady When you’re the only thing that eases pain The softest place to land that I have known The safest place to fall is you alone I know it gets exhausting You don’t need to remind me Just want to lie here No strength left to argue I’m sorry Hope you know I’m trying And we’re all going through it Your joy still feels like medicine When tinted air is here My heart is activated [Pre-Chorus] My breath has been weighted for so long My hands are fated to stay strong Can’t make you feel it how I see it Just give me a minute [Chorus] I can’t quiet my mind, quiet my mind Like sleepwalking through the day When the color feels so vibrant Still half-asleep I can’t explain But, the air feels so right Like the world is activated When tinted air is here My heart is activated In this tinted air In this tinted air [Verse 2] Now I feel it everywhere In the earth In the ocean In the air There is nothing I can do You want me to be quiet It’s impossible It’s like asking the ocean To stop being wet It’s like asking the air To cease to exist Don’t know what you expect But I’ll try to stay close and sweet So tired, could sleep a whole year Stuck somewhere between Between and nowhere clear Color fills my head When tinted air is here [Pre-Chorus] My breath has been weighted for so long My hands are fated to stay strong Can’t make you feel it how I see it Just give me a minute [Chorus] I can’t quiet my mind, quiet my mind Like sleepwalking through the day When the color feels so vibrant Still half-asleep I can’t explain But, the air feels so right Like the world is activated When tinted air is here My heart is activated In this tinted air In this tinted air [Final Chorus] If you could see it Then you would feel it What happens when tinted air is here My heart is activated And I’m taken somewhere else The air feels so right Like the world is activated When tinted air is here My heart is activated In this tinted air In this tinted air In this tinted air
