miss A Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To breathe, inhale, let go
Breathe, inhale, let go, take time
To breathe, inhale, let go
Breathe, inhale, let go, take time
To breathe, inhale, let go
Breathe, inhale, let go, take time
Free your mind and soul, take time
Just breathe, inhale, let go, oh
Free your mind and soul, take time
To breathe, inhale, let go, oh
Free
The lyrics to miss A's song Breathe depict a person being intensely and helplessly infatuated with someone else. They are so consumed with their feelings that it physically affects them, causing their chest and body to feel tight and making it difficult for them to breathe whenever they think of the person they like. The singer tries to play it cool and act like they're not interested, but they can't help but steal glances at the person they like. They also entertain the idea of confessing their feelings to them, but express hesitation and anxiety about it. The chorus repeats the phrase "I can't breathe" several times, emphasizing the overwhelming nature of their emotions.
The lyrics capture the intense emotions that come with falling for someone, particularly when it's unrequited or uncertain. The way the singer's physical sensations are tied to their emotions highlights the all-consuming nature of their feelings, and the repetition of the chorus heightens the urgency of their desire for the other person. The song is a relatable depiction of the helplessness and anxiety that can come with having a crush, and the longing for the other person to reciprocate one's feelings.
