With the recent release of their debut full length album Empty Promises, The Breakpoint Method is on the rise. Effortlessly bending catchy, melodic guitar riffs and vocals with throat-shredding screams and heavy breakdowns, the band has a sound all of its own.

The Breakpoint Method Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Bila ku mengenalimu
Dunia ini serasa
Cuma dalam genggamanku
Ramai yang datang menduga
Namun tak sama denganmu
Aku... percaya
Biar pun remuk di hati
Kerana kau aku rela
Mengapa aku yang tidak setia
Mengapa aku kah yang berdosa
Mengapa ku mudah terlupa
Janji-janji kita kali pertama
Sesalnya aku cuma
Ingatkan engkau merayu
Itulah kesilapanku
Belum terlewat lagi
Itu kata darimu dusta
Memang begitu indah
Mengapa aku yang tidak setia
Mengapa aku kah yang berdosa
Mengapa ku mudah terlupa
Janji-janji kita kali pertama
Mengapa aku yang tidak setia
Mengapa aku kah yang berdosa
Mengapa ku mudah terlupa
Janji-janji kita kali pertama
Musuh tak kenal
Jangan diikut tinggalkan dia
Mengapa aku masih ko goda
Masih goda
Mengapa aku yang tidak setia
Mengapa aku kah yang berdosa
Mengapa ku mudah terlupa
Janji-janji kita kali pertama
Mengapa aku yang tidak setia
Mengapa aku kah yang berdosa
Mengapa ku mudah terlupa
Janji-janji kita kali pertama
Mengapa aku yang tidak setia
Mengapa aku kah yang berdosa
Mengapa ku mudah terlupa
Janji-janji kita kali pertama

The lyrics of The Breakpoint Method's song Zombie express the regret and confusion of the singer in a relationship that has failed. From the beginning, the singer felt that they had the world in their hands when they met their partner, but over time, they have become disillusioned. Despite feeling brokenhearted, the singer is determined to take care of themselves and not let their feelings consume them. The chorus repeatedly asks why the singer is the unfaithful one, the sinner, and the forgetful one, calling back to the promises made in the beginning of the relationship. However, the singer knows that they are being deceived by their partner, and urges themselves to leave the manipulative person behind.
The lyrics reveal a sense of vulnerability and frustration that is often felt after a relationship ends. The singer is trying to make sense of their own emotions while grappling with the confusing behavior of their partner. They are trying to mend their broken heart while not letting their partner's lies consume them. At the same time, the lyrics express a sense of empowerment as the singer decides to take care of themselves and move on from the toxic relationship.

Semenjak awal lagi
Ever since the beginning
Bila ku mengenalimu
When I first met you
Dunia ini serasa
The world feels
Cuma dalam genggamanku
Like it's only in my hands
Ramai yang datang menduga
Many came and suspected
Namun tak sama denganmu
But none were like you
Aku... percaya
I... believe
Biar pun remuk di hati
Even if it's broken in my heart
Akan ku rawat sendiri
I will take care of it myself
Kerana kau aku rela
Because of you, I am willing
Mengapa aku yang tidak setia
Why am I not faithful
Mengapa aku kah yang berdosa
Why am I the sinner
Mengapa ku mudah terlupa
Why am I so forgetful
Janji-janji kita kali pertama
Our first promises
Sesalnya aku cuma
My only regret
Ingatkan engkau merayu
Remind you of your pleading
Itulah kesilapanku
That's my mistake
Belum terlewat lagi
It's not too late yet
Itu kata darimu dusta
Those were your lying words
Memang begitu indah
It was indeed beautiful
Musuh tak kenal
Unfamiliar enemies
Jangan diikut tinggalkan dia
Don't follow, leave them
Mengapa aku masih ko goda
Why am I still being tempted
Masih goda
Still tempted

I was at work this morning, and a coworker was listening to the original version of this song. I told her, you want to hear a slightly metal version of this.....fair to say you gained a fan from her almost immediately.
@danielreddick4147
Travis Rose sadly the singer and drummer are original. Not sure if Eric is still on bass or not but even with the new members TBM still rocks
@shellylangley3726
Eric is still with the Breakpoint Method, along with Tyler Lyon, lead singer. Micheal Talley guitar. Mike Mast drummer. They have put out even more amazing music check out out s

If you guys can ever make it to see these guys live, i suggest that you do it. A great live show, very energetic, and most importantly some good mind blowing awesome music.
