Breath
E.P.I.C. feat. Julie Thompson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never looked so lonely
I see you falling
‘Cos we don’t know
Where we need to go
If you keep folding
And I play my cards, then there’s no doubt
That I don’t want to
Can’t you feel this out
Take me down
Down to where we first started
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We’ve been holding
Take me down
Down to where we first started
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We’ve been holding our breaths too long
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
I know some things can’t be outrun
But what if tomorrow never comes
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
I know some things can’t be outrun
But what if tomorrow never comes
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
I know we’ve grown
Feels like we’re now ten storeys
And these heights have got you worried
But every chapter I’ve shown
That I’m right here
And I’m tired of getting locked out by you
Ya we’ve got fears
But I’m tired of getting locked out by you
Take me down
Down to where we first started
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We’ve been holding
Take me down
Down to where we first started
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We’ve been holding our breaths too long
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
I know some things can’t be outrun
But what if tomorrow never comes
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
I know some things can’t be outrun
But what if tomorrow never comes
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
Take me down
Down to where we first started
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We’ve been holding
Take me down
Down to where we first started
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We’ve been holding our breaths too long
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
I know some things can’t be outrun
But what if tomorrow never comes
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
I know some things can’t be outrun
But what if tomorrow never comes
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
The lyrics in "Breath" by E.P.I.C. featuring Julie Thompson seem to be about a relationship that is going through a difficult time. The opening lines of the song refer to the "king's road" looking lonely, which could be a metaphor for feeling lost or isolated in the world. The singer then talks about seeing their partner "falling" and not knowing where to go next. It seems that both parties are struggling to find their way, and the uncertainty is leading to tension and fear.
The lyrics then take a turn towards a desire to return to the beginning of the relationship, a time when things felt simpler and less chaotic. The singer asks to be taken down to where they first started, emphasizing the need to go back to a place of comfort and security. The lyrics also discuss the idea of pretending that they are the only ones, perhaps trying to recapture the intimacy and closeness they once shared.
Overall, the lyrics in "Breath" deal with the difficulties of navigating a relationship that is going through a rough patch. There is a sense of longing for a simpler time and a desire to find a way to move forward together.

The king’s road
The path that we are on in life
Never looked so lonely
We feel isolated and lost
I see you falling
I notice that you're struggling
‘Cos we don’t know
Because we are uncertain
Where we need to go
We are directionless and don't know what we want
If you keep folding
If you keep giving up and not trying
And I play my cards, then there’s no doubt
If I make my move and take a risk, it's for sure
That I don’t want to
That I don't want to let go of you
L-L-let you go
I don't want to let you go
Can’t you feel this out
Can't you sense the connection between us
Take me down
Bring me to a place
Down to where we first started
Back to where our relationship began
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We've been waiting and hoping
We’ve been holding
We've been hoping and waiting
We’ve been holding our breaths too long
We've been waiting for something to happen for too long
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
Let's imagine that we're the only people in the world
I know some things can’t be outrun
I understand that some problems can't be solved
But what if tomorrow never comes
What if we don't have another chance
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
We've been waiting for something that may never come
I know we’ve grown
I know that we've changed and matured
Feels like we’re now ten storeys
It feels like we're standing on top of a tall building
And these heights have got you worried
And you're scared of the risks that come with being up high
But every chapter I’ve shown
But I have proven myself in every situation
That I’m right here
That I'm still here for you
And I’m tired of getting locked out by you
And I'm tired of being shut out by you
Ya we’ve got fears
Yes, we are scared
Take me down
Bring me to a place
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We've been waiting and hoping
We’ve been holding
We've been waiting and hoping
We’ve been holding our breaths too long
We've been waiting for something that may never come
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
Let's imagine that we're the only people in the world
I know some things can’t be outrun
I understand that some problems can't be solved
But what if tomorrow never comes
What if we don't have another chance
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
We've been waiting for something that may never come
Take me down
Bring me to a place
Down to where we first started
Back to where our relationship began
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We've been waiting and hoping
We’ve been holding
We've been waiting and hoping
We’ve been holding our breaths too long
We've been waiting for something that may never come
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
Let's imagine that we're the only people in the world
I know some things can’t be outrun
I understand that some problems can't be solved
But what if tomorrow never comes
What if we don't have another chance
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
We've been waiting for something that may never come
Take me down
Bring me to a place
Down to where we first started
Back to where our relationship began
‘Cos we’ve been holding
We've been waiting and hoping
We’ve been holding
We've been waiting and hoping
We’ve been holding our breaths too long
We've been waiting for something that may never come
Let’s pretend we’re the only ones
Let's imagine that we're the only people in the world
I know some things can’t be outrun
I understand that some problems can't be solved
But what if tomorrow never comes
What if we don't have another chance
Then we’ve been holding our breaths too long
We've been waiting for something that may never come
