Break
BLØØD Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm okay
Until I break
The worlds so fake
My body aches
Can't get away
But I still try
To survive
My soul won't shake
I hope to see through
A broken mind
But i've lost
So much of my time
Say, I'm okay
Until I break
The worlds so fake
My body aches
Can't get away
But I still try
To survive
Bodies break
My soul won't shake

This highlights the pressure society places on individuals to maintain a strong front, despite their internal battles.
The line, "The world's so fake," expresses the artist's perception of the world as being insincere and dishonest. This sentiment is reinforced with the phrase, "My body aches, can't get away," suggesting the overwhelming burden and the longing to escape from the pain and the false reality.
Despite the challenges faced, there is an underlying resilience in the lyrics. The phrase, "But I still try to survive," reveals the determination to persevere despite the hardships endured.

I say
I express myself
I'm okay
I pretend to be fine
Until I break
Until I reach my breaking point
The world's so fake
The world is full of deception
My body aches
I feel physical pain
Can't get away
I cannot escape
But I still try
But I continue to make an effort
To survive
To keep living
Bodies break
Physical bodies deteriorate
My soul won't shake
My core being remains strong
I hope to see through
I desire to have clarity
A broken mind
A mind that is damaged
But I've lost
But I have wasted
So much of my time
A significant amount of my time
Say, I'm okay
Again, I pretend to be fine
Until I break
Until I reach my breaking point
The world's so fake
The world is full of deception

here's the lyrics, i'm not sure if anyone else has commented them yet
Every endless word, I have nothing here
Sick of all that was, tired all that is
Every hated love I have broken in
Sick of fucking up, tired of falling in
And all that I regret, I have before, I will again
It's over now (are you running away?)
I come apart (as I lay awake!)
It's in my blood (let the sky fall down!)
I won't let go (my oblivion!)
Counting every breath, I am my own fear
Nothing ever was, nothing ever is
Every halo lost, I am worn within
Nothing left to harm, nothing left to live
And all that I regret, I have before, I will again
It's over now (are you running away?)
I come apart (as I lay awake!)
It's in my blood (let the sky fall down!)
I won't let go (my oblivion!)
Face the monster I've become (and fight! I will not become!)
In the ground we rise to burn (maybe your life will let me love)
Forgive my heart...
It's over now
I come apart
It's in my blood (let the sky fall down!)
I won't let go (my oblivion!)

LYRICS
[Verse 1]
Every endless word, I have nothing here
Sick of all that was, tired of all that is
Every hated love I have broken in
Sick of fucking up, tired of falling in
[Pre-Chorus]
And all that I regret
I have before, I will again
[Chorus]
It's over now. Are you running away?
I come apart as I lie in your way
It's in my blood, let the sky fall down
I won't let go my oblivion
[Verse 2]
Counting every breath, I am my own fear
Nothing ever was, nothing ever is
Every halo lost, I am worn within
Nothing left to hurt, nothing left to live
[Pre-Chorus]
And all that I regret
I have before, I will again
[Chorus]
It's over now. Are you running away?
I come apart as I lie in your way
It's in my blood, let the sky fall down
I won't let go my oblivion
[Bridge]
Face the monster I've become
I'm falling down, hate won't let me go
In the ground we rise to burn
I'm caving in, life won't let me live
Forgive my heart
[Outro]
It's over now
I come apart
It's in my blood, let the sky fall down
I won't let go my oblivion
@loneflint6779
I like how heavy these songs have been. very powerful
@johnnywilkman
Lone flint2000 I know, They're not playing...
@TacoFather101
Lone flint2000 well Ben did say in an interview before red cold river that they were going back to the heavy metal like in there early days.
@dutchman1997
I THINK SO TOO!!
@synthetiCore
Breaking Benjamin exhibits a great balance of restrained power, which makes it all the more brutal when unleashed. They ration their heaviness and for that very reason it's all the more potent.
@machinedhead1108
I like BB but this is not heavy
@VicariousNick55
Breaking Benjamin is one of those hidden gems in the rock genre that never fail to disappoint! They have stayed true to their sound since day 1 and always have improved with each album. I have the utmost respect for these guys, and I always will.
@breakingbenjamin1fan788
Heck yeah man! Definitely agree with you!
@MetalRob81
Nick Snider I disagree.. After the debut this quality has gone down imo. That album was special.
Still enjoy the band.
@eiz8860
Hidden gems? They're really famous.
