Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A shame you seemed an honest man
And all the fears you hold so dear
Will turn to whisper in your ear
And you know what they say might hurt you
And you know that it means so much
And you don't even feel a thing
I have lost it all
And you don't seem the lying kind
A shame that I can read your mind
And all the things that I read there
Candle-lit smile that we both share
And you know I don't mean to hurt you
But you know that it means so much
And you don't even feel a thing
I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning,
Help me to breathe
I am hurting, I have lost it all
I am losing
Help me to breathe
The song "Duvet" by Bôa showcases a feeling of loss and desperation. The first verse refers to a man who may have seemed honest, but there are fears that he holds near and dear to his heart that will soon turn into whispers in his ear. The lyrics here suggest that while this man may seem honorable and truthful, deeper insecurities are present. The phrase "you know what they say might hurt you" is particularly telling, alluding to an understanding that the truth can be painful.
In the second verse, the singer refers to herself and her ability to read the mind of the man previously mentioned. The candle-lit smiles they share suggest a romantic interest or a deep connection between them. The lyrics "And you know I don't mean to hurt you, but you know that it means so much, and you don't even feel a thing" show the singer's desperation for a connection with someone who may not feel as deeply as she does.
The chorus is repeated twice and emphasizes the singer's feelings of falling, fading, drowning, and hurting. The final plea for help in breathing and losing it all seems to encapsulate a desire for some sort of resolution, whether it be through the resolution of the relationship represented in the song or some other form of closure. Overall, the lyrics show a raw authenticity in their portrayal of emotion and the pain of loss.

Luke 11:13 | If you, though you are evil, know how to Give Good gifts to your children, how much more Will GOD in Heaven Give The Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!
John 1:11-13 | He Came to that which was His own, but His own did not receive Him. Yet to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His Name, He Gave the Right to become children of GOD—children Born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but Born of GOD.
John 3:19-21 | "This is the Verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of Light because their deeds were evil.
Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and will not come into it for fear that their deeds be exposed. But whoever lives by the Truth comes into the Light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been in the Sight of GOD."
Romans 5:10 | If while GOD’s enemies, we were Reconciled to Him through the death of His Son, how much more will you be Reconciled and Saved through His Life!

First one to apologize is the bravest
First one to forgive is the strongest
First one to forget is the happiest
