Break
Gob [ westpunk.ru ] Lyrics

The lyrics of "Break" by Gob depict a person who is struggling to contain their emotions in a situation that is overwhelming them. The opening lines - "I'm playing cool and swell, but I've been through all hell" - suggest that the person is putting on a facade of calmness while they are actually feeling a sense of chaos within them. They are trying to make a break - to escape the overwhelming feelings - but they cannot forget about it. The next lines - "Better if it rings out, I'm acting through it all" - suggest that they are trying to speak out about their feelings, but it would be easier for them if they could simply express themselves without having to act as if they are fine.

The chorus of the song - "Cause I don't want to break, I don't want to fake, I just want to get out" - suggests that the person is torn between wanting to stay strong and not wanting to show weakness, and wanting to escape from the situation that is causing them to feel overwhelmed. The lines "Making up excuses, running from your eyes, drowning in your side, flooded in our blood" suggest that they feel trapped and suffocated by the intensity of the emotion they are experiencing.

The second verse of the song continues the theme of feeling trapped, with the lines "It's closing in somehow, pressed up against me now, get under my skin, take a knife and cut it out." Here, the person seems to be suggesting that the intensity of their emotions feels physically suffocating, as if they are being pinned down by them. The final lines of the song reiterate the person's desire to escape from the situation: "Turning blue and no surprise, I'm not breathing when I'm not inspired, I just want to get out."
