Breathe Electric Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This endless fight of mine
If you could see me-eee now
You'd be so surprised
And we are fine
We are, are
We are fine
She walked by in the middle of the night
Just to make sure I was dead
(She walks through the door)
That I need closure
Now I need closure
She walked by in the middle of the night
Just to pretend she missed me
Now I say live and let die
Bring all night
This is where find out,
Find out what we're made of
And we are fine
Ad we are, are
We are fine
We are, are
Now if you go from there
You'll live through everyday
And we are fine
If you could see me now
You would know
If you could see me now
You would know, you would know
If you could see me now
You would know, you would know
If you could see me now
You would know, you would know
And we are fine
We are, are
We are fine
We are, are
And we are fine
We are, are
We are fine
We are, are
Now if you go from there
You'll live through everyday
And we are fine
And we are fine
We are fine
We are fine
We are fine
The lyrics of Breathe Electric's song The Endless Fight seem to showcase a person who has been fighting for something for days on end. They appear weary and tired but still soldiering on. The singer implies that if anyone were to see them in their current state, they would be surprised. This could suggest that the fighter may be putting up a brave front, masking their exhaustion from the world.
The narrative then seems to segue into a relationship breakup. The lyrics mention a woman who seemingly checked in on the fighter in the middle of the night to confirm their demise. The fighter speaks of needing closure, and the woman merely pretending to miss them shows the singer's acceptance that the relationship is over but still seeking resolution. The lyrics "live and let die" indicate the fighter is ready to move on and is now ready to experience life to the fullest.
