The Best Of All
Breathe Electric Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So why don't you
Wipe the frown off of that face
And speak to me my dear
And we are the best of all
And we are the best of all
So why can't you
Come on over tell me it's all right
You know i've been aching so
To grease myself with you
And with me that's the way it goes
And we are the same after all
This is what you waited
Was it worth the time
Too bad you needed more
Could have been with me
With me, with me
Say i'm already down
So I think I-
I'll sit on by and let the world go by
I know it's such an achin' lie
That I will be just fine
And I, oh, I play the game so well
And you are are to blame after all
Yeah, yeah
This is what you waited for
Was it worth the time
Too bad you needed more
This is what you waited for
Could have been with me
With me, with me
Yeah, yeah
This is what you waited for
Was it worth the time
Too bad you needed more
This is what you waited for
Could have been with me
With me, with me
Windows boarded up and closed
Never thought you'd end up alone
Was it something that left you nothing
And I know
That this is not your fault
Never thought you'd end up alone
Never know til its gone
So I'm asking you
Hey you're already down
So why don't you
This is what you waited for
Was it worth the time
Too bad you needed more
This is what you waited for
Could have been with me
With me, with me
Yeah, yeah
This is what you waited for
Was it worth the time
Too bad you needed more
This is what you waited for
Ccould have been with me
With me, with me...
The lyrics of Breathe Electric's song "The Best of All" seem to be addressing someone who is feeling down and struggling. The singer is encouraging them to wipe the frown off of their face and talk to them about what's happening. They also suggest that the two of them are "the best of all" and that they are "the same after all," possibly indicating a shared experience or perspective.
As the song progresses, the singer continues to offer support and understanding, but also acknowledges that the person they're talking to may not be ready to open up. They talk about playing the game well and feeling like they're always waiting for something that never comes. The chorus repeats the idea that this is what the person waited for, but that they could have been with the singer instead.
The bridge of the song introduces a new element, as the singer mentions windows being boarded up and someone ending up alone. It's unclear how this ties into the rest of the song, but it adds another layer to the emotions and experiences being explored.
Overall, "The Best of All" is a song that seems to be trying to connect with someone who is feeling isolated and struggling emotionally. It offers support and understanding while also expressing a sense of frustration and missed opportunities.

Hey you're already down
You seem sad and defeated already
So why don't you
Why not try to do something to feel better?
Wipe the frown off of that face
Try to cheer up and smile
And speak to me my dear
Talk to me and let me help you
And we are the best of all
Together, we are the best
Hey you're already down
You still seem sad and defeated
So why can't you
Why not come talk to me and feel better?
Come on over tell me it's all right
Come talk and let me help you feel better
You know i've been aching so
I've been longing to be with you
To grease myself with you
To be close and intimate with you
And with me that's the way it goes
That's how things are between us
And we are the same after all
We are similar in many ways
This is what you waited
This is what you were expecting
Was it worth the time
Do you think it was worth waiting for?
Too bad you needed more
It's unfortunate that you wanted something else
Could have been with me
You could have been with me all along
Say i'm already down
I admit that I feel sad
So I think I-
So maybe I should just
I'll sit on by and let the world go by
I'll just watch the world and let time pass
I know it's such an achin' lie
I know I'm lying to myself and it hurts
That I will be just fine
That everything will be okay
And I, oh, I play the game so well
I am good at pretending and hiding my true feelings
And you are are to blame after all
You played a role in making me feel this way
Windows boarded up and closed
Everything is shut off and isolated
Never thought you'd end up alone
You never expected to be alone
Was it something that left you nothing
Did something happen that left you with nothing?
And I know
I understand
That this is not your fault
You are not to blame
Never thought you'd end up alone
You still can't believe you're alone
Never know til its gone
Sometimes you don't realize what you have until it's gone
So I'm asking you
So I want to ask you
Could have been with me
You could have been with me and not alone
With me, with me
Together with me
This is what you waited for
This is what you were expecting
Was it worth the time
Do you think it was worth waiting for?
Too bad you needed more
It's unfortunate that you wanted something else
Could have been with me
You could have been with me all along
This is what you waited for
This is what you were expecting
Could have been with me
You could have been with me and not alone
Windows boarded up and closed
Everything is shut off and isolated
Never thought you'd end up alone
You never expected to be alone
Was it something that left you nothing
Did something happen that left you with nothing?
This is what you waited for
This is what you were expecting
Too bad you needed more
It's unfortunate that you wanted something else
Could have been with me
You could have been with me all along
With me, with me
Together with me
