Breaking News
Louis The Child & RAYE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A couple of nights ago
Sat on the couch, you're telling me why
Why I shouldn't let you go
Why, why, why did I stay like this?
Why, why didn't I quit?
I know that you know that I'm gonna go
That I'm a foot out the doorNot innocent, you're tryna prevent
Afraid that I'm moving slow
Why, why, why did I stay like this?
I must admit
Loving you was easy
Watching us on TV, breaking news
I think that I'm better, better, better without you
Don't you think I'm better, better, better without you?
Loving you was so sweet
Now watch us on the TV, fall into
I think that I'm better, better, better without you
Don't you think I'm better, better, better without you?
Now that I've had a couple of weeks
A couple of sleeps, I know
You're not the man my mama should meet
The one I'll be taking home
Though I know I'm not that into this
I must admit
Loving you was easy
Watching us on TV, breaking news
I think that I'm better, better, better without you
Don't you think I'm better, better, better without you?
Loving you was so sweet
I think that I'm better, better, better without you
Don't you think I'm better, better, better without you?
'Cause loving you was easy
Loving you was easy
I know that I'm better
I know that I'm better without you, yeah, yeah
Without you, without you, without you, without you, ooh
'Cause loving you was easy
Watching us on TV, breaking news
I think that I'm better, better, better without you
Don't you think I'm better, better, better without you?
Loving you was so sweet
Now watch us on the TV, fall into
I think that I'm better, better, better without you
Don't you think I'm better, better, better without you?
Watch us on the TV, breaking news
I think that I'm better without you
I think that I'm better without you, don't you?
Watch us on the TV, breaking news
I think that I'm better without you
I think that I'm better without you, don't you?
Watch us on the TV, breaking news
I think that I'm better without you
I think that I'm better without you, don't you?
The lyrics to Louis The Child and RAYE's "Breaking News" deal with the aftermath of a relationship that is coming to an end. The song tells a story of a person who has come to realize that they are better off without their partner, despite loving them at one time. The verse explains that the singer knows that they should leave but are hesitant to do so. They wonder why they have not left yet and why they are still stuck in their relationship. The chorus brings the idea of the media and the singer watching their relationship on the TV, like "breaking news," creating a picturesque representation of the relationship. The bridge talks of how a person can become convinced that they love someone, but with time and space, they can come to see that the relationship is not right for them. Overall, the song is about a person struggling with the conflicting emotions of wanting to leave but also fearing being without their loved one while ultimately realizing that leaving is better for them.

A couple of nights ago
It happened only a few nights ago
Sat on the couch, you're telling me why
We sat together on the couch and you tried to justify yourself
Why I shouldn't let you go
You tried to convince me to stay and not leave
Why, why, why did I stay like this?
I question why I stayed in this situation
Why, why didn't I quit?
I wonder why I did not end it earlier
I know that you know that I'm gonna go
You are aware that I am leaving soon
That I'm a foot out the door
I am almost out the door
Not innocent, you're tryna prevent
You are not innocent and you're trying to stop me from leaving
Afraid that I'm moving slow
You fear that I'm not moving fast enough to leave
Loving you was easy
It was simple to love you
Watching us on TV, breaking news
The story of our relationship is a big deal and is featured on TV
I think that I'm better, better, better without you
I believe that I am happier and better off without you
Don't you think I'm better, better, better without you?
Do you not agree that I am better without you?
Now that I've had a couple of weeks
After a few weeks have passed
A couple of sleeps, I know
After a few nights of sleep, I understand
You're not the man my mama should meet
You are not someone I want to introduce to my mother
The one I'll be taking home
The person I will bring home to meet my family
Though I know I'm not that into this
Even though I am not really invested in this anymore
I must admit
I have to confess
Without you, without you, without you, without you, ooh
I am better off without you, without you, without you, etc.
Watch us on the TV, breaking news
