Mechanics of Breathing

Eyes closed
Diaphragm flattening downwards
Intercostal muscles moving the rib cage up and out

Air pressure differential detected

Air rushes into the lungs
Over the lips and past the tongue
Watch out alveoli
Here it comes

Now full to bursting
Hold it in
Hold it in
Lungs Burning

Now exhale

Thorax cavity contracting
Pushing the air
Flattening everything out
Eyes opening

Mind clear
Troubles far away
