Breathe
Seb Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you leave I'll need some time to get you off my mind
We're too far intertwined
I will miss calling you mine
I'll forget all the time and pretend I am fine
I'll miss you calling out my name
You lead my mind astray
It's not okay
Woah oh
Girl you got me fucked up
I'm running round in circles
Tryna figure where you're at
And now I'm thinking
You never really cared that much about me and now
You might forget about me but without you it is so hard to breathe

If you're leaving go right now
Don't make me wait just to find out
That you really mean it
Yeah you're losing all your feelings for me
I guess it's good riddance but god I hope there's better girls for me

Woah oh
Girl you got me fucked up
I'm running round in circles
Tryna figure where you're at
And now I'm thinking




You never really cared that much about me and now
You might forget about me but without you it is so hard to breathe

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Seb's song "Breathe" paint the picture of someone struggling to deal with a break-up. The person acknowledges that if their former lover leaves, it will take them some time to move on and forget all the time they spent together. The thought of their significant other calling out their name and leading their mind astray fills them with both longing and pain, as they know that they will miss what they had with that person, but they also know that it's not okay to hold on to something that's no longer there.


As the song progresses, it becomes more urgent - the person realizes that they need closure, that they can't wait around for their former lover to decide what they want. They urge their ex to leave right now, not to make them wait, as the uncertainty is too much to bear. They suspect that their ex no longer cares for them, and the thought of being forgotten by the person they loved is almost unbearable. But despite everything, they can't help but hope that there's someone out there who will make them feel as good as their ex did - even if they know it's a long shot.


Overall, "Breathe" is a powerful and deeply emotional song that taps into the universal experience of heartbreak and the struggle to move on. Through its vivid imagery and raw honesty, it captures the pain and confusion that come with the loss of a relationship, while also offering a small glimmer of hope for the future.

This song saved my life, there was a moment when I was very sad, wanting to disappear from the world due to a complication that my mother was experiencing, I felt that there would be no solution and that my head was going to explode, I put on my headphones and put This song at the highest volume, I closed my eyes and I felt that there would be hope for my mom and that's how it was, no problem lasts forever, just breathe, don't sink your heart!!
