The Inevitable
The Air I Breathe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You Turn Your Back On The Fucking World
The lyrics of The Air I Breathe's song The Inevitable are a call to arms for anyone feeling disillusioned or marginalized by society. The powerful line "When The World Turns Its Back On You, You Turn Your Back On The Fucking World" is a powerful statement about the need to stand up for oneself in the face of adversity.
The song's verses detail the struggle of feeling trapped in a world that doesn't understand or accept you, with lines like "I am not the person I used to be / I feel as though life is slipping out of me" evoking a sense of hopelessness and despair. However, the chorus provides a glimmer of hope and empowerment, urging listeners to take control of their own lives and refuse to be defeated by the world around them.
Overall, The Inevitable is a powerful anthem for anyone who has ever felt like they don't belong or that the world is against them. It speaks to the universal human experience of feeling alone and isolated, but also reminds us that we have the strength to persevere and fight back against the forces that would bring us down.

I Don't Want Your Sympathy For This Life That's Been Given To Me
You Only Showed Me How To Live With The Ones That Leave
And With My Pride Is All That You Left Me
I Will Survive [Be]cause I Am Not You
Time After Time, Just Know That
I Was The One Who Stood By You
And In The End, Remember
You Were The One Who Fucking Left Me
So Once Again
I'll Be The One Here With My Heart In My Hand
I Know I Said That I Would Forget
But You're Forever In The Back Of My Head
Is This All We'll Ever Know?
(I Would Give Anything)
[Be]cause I Can't Face This On My Own
(These Broken Hands Make Broken Things)
Lost and Alone
You Buried Me
With What You Couldn't Be
Am I A Symbol Of All The Things You Never Wanted To See?
You Took Life For Granted, I Hope You Choke On Every Promise You've Made
All Your Words Lack Of Their Meaning
Yet You Never Thought You'd Lose It All
You Claimed You'd Change With The Seasons
But You Never Made It Past The Fall
Is This All Well Ever Know?
(I Would Give Anything)
[Be]cause I Can't Face This On My Own
(These Broken Hands Make Broken Things)
Lost and Alone
So Mark My Grave Unknown
It's Said To Live Life With A Heart Of Gold
But A Heart Of Stone Is All I Really Have To Show
And If I'm Not The Only One In This World
Then Tell Me Why Do I Feel So Damn Alone?
