Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Myself gesê nie weer so gou
Maar in jou oë
Sien ek wareliefde nou
Staan ek voor jou
My belofte spook by my
Gaan iemand seerkry
Daar’s ‘n oorlog in my
My hart en my kop baklei
Breek my breek die mure om my
Leer my om weer lief te kry
Lief te kry
Breek my breek die ketting om my
Help my ek wil asem kry
Asem kry (Oh ho ho)
Ek wil weer asem kry
Dieselfde storie
Dieselfde gevoel hier binne my
Ek wil soveel gee
En vir ‘n slag weer voel ek’s vry
Weer glo daar’s ‘n rede (Weer glo daar's 'n rede)
Weer glo daar’s iemand aan my sy
Kom vat al die reënweer
En kom vat al die storms rondom my
Daar’s ‘n oorlog in my
My hart en my kop baklei
Breek my breek die mure om my
Leer my om weer lief te kry
Lief te kry
Breek my breek die ketting om my
Help my ek wil asem kry
Asem kry (Oh ho ho)
Ek wil weer asem kry
Miskien is daar rede om te val en seer te kry?
Maar ek’s moeg om te twyfel
En ek is moeg om alleen te bly
So breek my breek die mure om my
Leer my om weer
Lief te kry
Breek my breek die ketting om my
Help my ek wil asem kry
Asem kry (Oh ho ho)
Ek wil weer asem kry

It portrays the complex journey of healing and opening oneself up to love again, despite the fear of being hurt. Ultimately, the song expresses a deep desire for emotional growth, transformation, and the willingness to take risks for love.

Myself belowe
I have promised myself
Myself gesê nie weer so gou
I have told myself not again so soon
Maar in jou oë
But in your eyes
Sien ek wareliefde nou
I see true love now
Staan ek voor jou
I stand before you
My belofte spook by my
My promise haunts me
Gaan iemand seerkry
Will someone get hurt
Of is jy die regte een vir my?
Or are you the right one for me?
Daar’s ‘n oorlog in my
There's a war within me
My hart en my kop baklei
My heart and my mind are fighting
Breek my breek die mure om my
Break me, break the walls around me
Leer my om weer lief te kry
Teach me to love again
Lief te kry
To receive love
Breek my breek die ketting om my
Break me, break the chains around me
Help my ek wil asem kry
Help me, I want to breathe
Asem kry (Oh ho ho)
Breathe (Oh ho ho)
Ek wil weer asem kry
I want to breathe again
Dieselfde storie
The same story
Dieselfde gevoel hier binne my
The same feeling inside me
Ek wil soveel gee
I want to give so much
En vir ‘n slag weer voel ek’s vry
And for once again feel free
Weer glo daar’s ‘n rede (Weer glo daar's 'n rede)
To believe again there's a reason (To believe again there's a reason)
Weer glo daar’s iemand aan my sy
To believe again there's someone by my side
Kom vat al die reënweer
Come and take all the rainy weather
En kom vat al die storms rondom my
And come and take all the storms around me
Miskien is daar rede om te val en seer te kry?
Maybe there's a reason to fall and get hurt?
Maar ek’s moeg om te twyfel
But I'm tired of doubting
En ek is moeg om alleen te bly
And I'm tired of being alone
So breek my breek die mure om my
So break me, break the walls around me
Leer my om weer
Teach me to
Lief te kry
Love again
Breek my breek die ketting om my
Break me, break the chains around me
Help my ek wil asem kry
Help me, I want to breathe
Asem kry (Oh ho ho)
Breathe (Oh ho ho)
Ek wil weer asem kry
I want to breathe again
