1st of all, the question should be "what organ(s) do you breathe with" because it's a...group effort, so to speak :)

A basic answer would be that the lungs help you breathe but that's not the whole picture.

In a slightly more intricate answer, the brain controls the lungs, "telling" them to inhale and exhale, and the heart keeps the blood moving so that your brain can continue controlling the lungs.
