The differences between "Take One Last Breath" and "Pedestrians Is Another Word for Speedbump" are minor. A main difference is that "Take One Last Breath" is longer by 21 seconds, and does not include the synth patches from "Pedestrians" during the breakdown. The middle part of the song where is says "captain captain, before the sail rips" repeats three times in "Pedestrians", yet  is said only twice in "Take One Last Breath", first "captain captain, before the sail rips", then "captain captain, I can see enemy ships" before repeating the first term. Lastly, "Pedestrians" does not repeat the chorus at the end, but simply ends with the breakdown.
