Break
Y.O.U. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Morning breaks on skates
Noon breeze on skis
Nights are black as tar
Tell me what goes on at night
When the kids are sleeping tight?

The toboggans in the night
Slide away upon the hill
The toboggans in the night
Slide away of their own will
Louis saw them, yes he did
Underneath the moon's glow
Louis saw them, yes he did
They were his, so he should know

Morning breaks on skates
Noon breeze on skis
Nights are black as tar
Tell me what goes on at night
When the kids are sleeping tight?

The toboggans and the skis
Leave no tracks upon the snow
The toboggans and the skis
They are silent as they go
And the skates upon the lake
Twist and twirl but never fall
But the skates upon the lake
Have no feet in them at all

Morning breaks on skates
Noon breeze on skis
Nights are black as tar
Tell me what goes on at night
When the kids are sleeping tight?

In the morning we can see
That the sleds are still around
But the skates and all the skis
They are nowhere to be found
You'll find a ski up on the hill
You'll find a skate under a cap
It all depends upon the chill
And if the kids have had their nap

Morning breaks on skates




Noon breeze on skis
Nights are black as tar

Overall Meaning

The song "Break" by Y.O.U. is a soulful track that explores the cycles and seasons of life, and how sometimes things just don't turn out as planned. The lyrics suggest that the singer has a deep understanding of the pain and suffering that the person they are addressing has gone through, and they are willing to help heal their wounds. The song begins by saying that everything in life happens in circles and cycles, and while there is always a reason, things don't always turn out the way we want them to. The person they are addressing in the song hasn't been held by anyone, and they have never had a single moment of truth, meaning no one has ever told them the truth about themselves.


The singer then goes on to say that if they were theirs, they would have looked into their eyes and told them the truth. They then ask them to tell them the words they long to hear, promising to sing them loud and clear. They want to heal the wounds that this person has held onto for so long and help them break the cycle of pain they have been living with. The cycle of pain has been caused by mistakes that the person has made, and because there are so many missing pieces in their life, they're using it as a reason to justify how they feel. The singer wishes that they would take the chance and trust them, giving them the chance to show them that love is louder than their pain.


Overall, the song is about taking a chance and trusting someone to help you break the cycle of pain you have been living with. It's about being vulnerable with someone who wants to help heal your wounds, and trusting that love can be louder than your pain.

LYRICS:

Give me your broken
Give me your burden
All of the hurt you hideaway
Give me your ugly
Give me your lonely
All of the words you're scared to say
Baby come closer
Head on my shoulder
You know I'll carry all the weight
Give me your broken
Give me your burden
I'll break I'll break I'll break
I'll break for you

If you just let me in
I could be here all night
Your eyes say everything
And I know what that feels like

Oh but I would
Fight for this forever
I could take the pressure
Whatever comes

Give me your broken
Give me your burden
All of the hurt you hideaway
Give me your ugly
Give me your lonely
All of the words you're scared to say
Baby come closer
Head on my shoulder
You know I'll carry all the weight
Give me your broken
Give me your burden
I'll break I'll break I'll break
I'll break for you

Break for you
I'll break I'll break I'll break
I'll break for you

Even when the worlds on fire
You pretend that it's alright
Cause I ain't never seen you cry
Holding it all inside oh you know
I would
Fight for this forever
I could take the pressure
Whatever comes

Give me your broken
Give me your burden
All of the hurt you hideaway
Give me your ugly
Give me your lonely
All of the words you're scared to say
Baby come closer
Head on my shoulder
You know I'll carry all the weight
Give me your broken
Give me your burden
I'll break I'll break I'll break
I'll break for you

(You know I'll carry all the weight)
You know I'll break for you
I'll break I'll break
I'll break for you

Break for you
I'll break I'll break I'll break
I'll break for you
