about
I’ve never publicly spoken out about being queer before, but in this divided world, It seems more important than ever to live openly and honestly, and stand up for our human rights.
Breathe Out is about the weightlessness I felt coming out - I tried to capture that feeling to help give others strength who maybe haven’t got there yet.
100% of the profits will go towards The Kaleidoscope Trust - a UK-based charity working to uphold the human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in countries around the world where they are discriminated against or marginalised due to their sexual orientation, gender identity and/or gender expression.
lyrics
I know you’ve been holding your breath
And clenching your fists
I can see your tired eyes and your worried lips
I know you’ve been walking the line
And keeping it straight
Weighted by the pain, you hide away
You can let go now
You can breathe out
Carrying this load for so long, oh you can set it down
Don’t you feel feel lighter?
Like a feather in the wind
And the half of you that’s been held in can be free
You can breathe out now
You can breathe out
You can make it quiet or loud
The story is yours
I’ll be standing by you proud
At the open door
And even though the road is long
And bound to hurt
You will find the love that you deserve
You can let go now
You can breathe out
You’ve been carrying this load for so long, oh you can set it down
Don’t you feel feel lighter?
Like a feather in the wind
And the half of you that’s been held in can be free
You can breathe out now
You can breathe out
Out like the sun after the rain
Out like the truth, out with the shame
You can let go now
Set it down
Breathe out

I have this on vinyl and, without exception, if I play it when friends come over someone stops mid conversation and asks "Who IS this?" Very lovely. Melissa
