Breathing
Recoil V.O.R Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But we crashed and burned
Now I'm on the run to a place
We can reunite
But without you by my side
I can't hide from all these things inside
Tonight we're getting closer
I'm running from a demon on my mind
I need you to believe me
'Cause with you here, I'm breathing deeper
'Cause with you here, I'm breathing deeper
'Cause with you here, I'm breathing deeper
But without you by my side
I can't hide from all these things inside
Tonight we're getting closer
I'm running from a demon on my mind
Just like a child
I need you to believe me
'Cause with you here, I'm breathing deeper
'Cause with you here, I'm breathing deeper
'Cause with you here, I'm breathing deeper
The first few lines of the song suggest that the singer was once told to be their best self and shine brightly, but something went wrong and they crashed and burned, which resulted in them running away. They are now in search for a place where they can reunite with someone who seems to be important to them. However, without that person by their side, the singer feels exposed and unable to hide from the things that trouble them. Despite this, there is a sense of hope and anticipation, as they feel they are getting closer to finding the answers they seek.
The repeated phrase "Cause with you here, I'm breathing deeper" suggests that the person they are trying to find is important to their emotional or mental well-being. Being near this person allows the singer to take deeper, more meaningful breaths. The line "Just like a child, I need you to believe me" adds an element of vulnerability, indicating that the singer needs someone to believe in them and what they are going through. The last repetition of the chorus provides a sense of closure, with the singer once again expressing that they are able to breathe deeper with their desired companion by their side.
