Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take, I′ll be watching you
Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay, I'll be watching you

Every move you make
And every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake, I′ll be watching you

Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take, I'll be watching you

Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay, I'll be watching you

I′ll be watching you
Every breath you take, every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take (I′ll be watching you)
Every single day, every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay (I'll be watching you)

Every breath you take, every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take (I′ll be watching you)




Every single day, every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay (I'll be watching you)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Deep Chills's song "Every Breath You Take" may at first appear to describe a romantic love and devotion towards someone. However, upon closer examination, the lyrics reveal a darker and more obsessive tone. The singer emphasizes their constant watchfulness over the person they address, pledging to observe their every move, word, and action.


The repetition of phrases like "I'll be watching you" and "every breath you take, every move you make" signifies the obsessive nature of the singer's surveillance. They express an intense desire to be aware of every aspect of the other person's life, indicating a lack of trust or a need for control.


The lyrics also touch upon the idea of deception and pretense. Phrases such as "every smile you fake, every claim you stake" suggest that the singer is aware of the other person's insincerity, yet remains vigilant nonetheless. This hints at a relationship strained by trust issues and a need for constant reassurance.


Overall, the lyrics of "Every Breath You Take" depict an individual consumed by an unhealthy and possessive love, which borders on obsession. It's a cautionary tale of love turned toxic, showcasing the negative impact that intense monitoring and lack of autonomy can have on a relationship.
