Break
rotto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lost
But they found me
Where to go
All around me
I feel small
They surround me
Then they're gone
Fine
Guess I'm not done
Try again
Find the right one
Look so hard
But I don't know where they are
Lies
Will they haunt me
Like a ghost
That I can't see
Is this real
Will I always be alone
I guess
This is just me
When I'm gone
Will I be free
Don't hold back
Say you missed me all along
See me, I'm taking flight
It's taking all my might
Get lost in the words unsaid
And in the words I write
Livin, but out of sight
Bruised, but won the fight
Been building it up inside
I'm letting it go tonight
Break me down, I sing off key
Breaks me down when they agree
Breaks me down, I'm gonna break again
Break me down, but they don't see
Breaks me down, I beg, I plea
Breaks me down, don't wanna break again
I lose my mind
Hold on tight
For dear life
I can't decide
Should I fight
Through the night
Woah
What am I doing home
Where I am, no one knows
Guess that's just how it goes
Stop
Look at me in my eyes
Watch the tears as they rise
Live within my disguise
Lies
Will they haunt me
Like a ghost
That I can't see
Is this real
Will I always be alone
I guess
This is just me
When I'm gone
Will I be free
Don't hold back
Say you missed me all along
See me, I'm taking flight
It's taking all my might
Get lost in the words unsaid
And in the words I write
Livin, but out of sight
Bruised, but won the fight
Been building it up inside
I'm letting it go tonight
Break me down, I sing off key
Breaks me down when they agree
Breaks me down, I'm gonna break again
Break me down, but they don't see
Breaks me down, I beg, I plea
Breaks me down, don't wanna break again
Break me down, I sing off key
Breaks me down, I'm gonna break again
Break me down, but they don't see




Breaks me down, I beg, I plea
Breaks me down, don't wanna break again

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Break" by Rotto capture a sense of feeling lost and searching for purpose. The song begins with the singer expressing their feeling of being lost and unsure of where to go. They feel small and surrounded, but this feeling quickly disappears. However, they acknowledge that they are not done and are willing to try again to find what they are looking for. The singer emphasizes the difficulty of their search, looking hard but not knowing where to find what they seek.


The theme of loneliness and haunting lies is introduced in the second verse. The singer questions if the lies they have been told will continue to haunt them like an unseen ghost, leading them to wonder if they will always be alone. The uncertainty of their reality is expressed, questioning if they will ever be free and longing for someone to acknowledge their absence. This sense of longing and isolation continues to build throughout the song and reaches a breaking point where the singer is ready to let go and release the emotions that have built up inside.


The chorus emphasizes the vulnerability and struggle the singer faces. They feel that they are singing off key and constantly being broken down. Despite the agreement of others and their pleas to not break again, the singer is on the brink of breaking once more. The bridge of the song reinforces the internal conflict the singer experiences. They are torn between holding on tight and fighting through the night, unsure of what they should do.


In summary, "Break" by Rotto explores themes of feeling lost, loneliness, and the struggle to find oneself. It illustrates the internal battle between wanting to hold on and the desire to let go, ultimately expressing the vulnerability and yearning for understanding.

Through the night
Throughout the darkness and nocturnal hours


Woah
Expressing surprise, intensity, or amazement


What am I doing home
Questioning the purpose and significance of being in one's residence


Where I am, no one knows
Unable to comprehend or determine one's exact location


Guess that's just how it goes
Suppose that is simply the way things happen


Stop
Halt or cease the current action


Look at me in my eyes
Direct your gaze into my eyes


Watch the tears as they rise
Observe the tears welling up and forming


Live within my disguise
Exist while concealing my true identity or emotions
