Break
Jessica Lowndes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thought you were taking my breath away
but I was really only suffocating
thought you were taking my pain away
but deep inside my heart was breaking

All my tears fall down like rain, I feel like I could go insane.
I got a long way to go so I better stop falling
better break before you catch me
I got a long way to go so I better stop falling
better break before you catch me

reassure me with a scream
baby, I'm the girl of your bad dreams
I'm a one piece puzzle, I don't need
someone else to make me feel complete now

All my tears fall down like rain, I feel like I could go insane.
I got a long way to go so I better stop falling
better break before you catch me
I got a long way to go so I better stop falling
better break before you catch me

I got a long way to go so I better stop falling
better break before you catch me
I got a long way to go so I better stop falling
better break before you catch me




better break before you catch me
better break before you catch me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Jessica Lowndes's song "Break in 2" explore the themes of suffocation, heartbreak, and the need for self-preservation in a relationship. The song begins with the singer feeling suffocated and deceived, as they believed the person they were with was taking their breath away and relieving their pain, but in reality, their heart was breaking. This suggests that the relationship was not as fulfilling or healthy as they had initially thought.


The line "All my tears fall down like rain, I feel like I could go insane" expresses the emotional turmoil and vulnerability the singer is experiencing. They feel overwhelmed by their feelings and contemplate the possibility of losing control. However, they are aware that they still have a long way to go and they need to stop themselves from falling further. There is a sense of self-awareness and determination to protect themselves before they become too deeply involved or hurt.


The chorus emphasizes the need to break free and detach from the situation before it becomes even more consuming. The repetition of the line "I got a long way to go so I better stop falling, better break before you catch me" underscores the urgency and importance of self-preservation.


In the bridge, the singer asks to be reassured, but in a contradictory and somewhat sarcastic manner. They declare themselves as the "girl of your bad dreams," suggesting that they don't need someone else to complete them or make them feel whole. This shows a sense of self-reliance and independence.


Overall, "Break in 2" is a song about realizing the need to protect oneself from a relationship that is causing emotional turmoil and heartbreak. It encourages taking a step back, breaking free, and prioritizing one's own well-being.

Once again my thanks to Heleen2010 for the upload. I am using it in my playlist as this song has no official video. This is another hard edged rocker from Jessica's TBT EP and written in 2005.
Obviously another break up song. How she can get from "Goodbye" to this song and "Fly Away" still amazes me. Such style range which she also demonstrates in her more recent work. But she wrote the TBT songs when she was 16... amazing.
