Breaking Through
Rabia Sorda Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Breakdown, noises way too loud, breakdown
Fall through, falling to the ground, Breakdown

Waiting for the moment to break
Waiting for the moment to break
Waiting for the moment - to break through
Fallen out of grace
Breaking through the fear - why?
Breaking through your isolation - why?
What a fucked up situation,
Nothing's for real

Breaking through the fear - why?
Breaking through your self-aversion and what
Keeps you here, logic's useless
Nothing's for real - why?

...I don't need you!
Breakdown, falling out of place, breakdown
Fall through, falling in and out, breakdown

You can tell me lies




You can tell whatever
Nothing's right!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rabia Sorda's "Breaking Through" are about the struggle of breaking through fear, isolation, and aversion to become independent and self-reliant. The first verse illustrates the feeling of being overwhelmed by loud noises and the fear of falling. The second verse expresses the yearning to overcome the barriers that hold a person back and fall out of grace, while the chorus is a repetition of "breaking through" with the ultimate goal of becoming self-sufficient. The bridge of the song reiterates the need to break through fear and self-aversion and suggests that logic is a hindrance in achieving this goal. The final verse emphasizes the idea of breaking down and falling out of place, but the affirmation that the individual doesn't need anyone else suggests that they can fall but will ultimately rise on their own.
