Song Description

Breathe communicates the message that it's important to slow down, acknowledge oneself and learn to enjoy being with oneself (rather than constantly keeping oneself occupied so that you don't have to deal with what's going on inside).

Lyrics

Crash through life, leaving your mark
Riding the wave playing the part
Achieving your goals, sailing strong
Making sure you're never wrong
The next one higher than the one before
You beat that too, hunting for more
On a one way trip to god knows where
Doesn't really matter as long as you're not there

(Chorus)
Stop, look, life's passing you by
Stop, listen, to your own cries
Taste the void all hollow and still
Yearning for you to ease the chill
Stop and breathe . Stop and breathe

Running around .. Running away
Running from yourself, from the choices that you've made
Afraid you won't like what you see
Afraid to just let yourself be
You can't escape however hard you try
Can't break away from what's inside

(Chorus)
Stop, look, life's passing you by
Stop, listen, to your own cries
Taste the void all hollow and still
Yearning for you to ease the chill
Stop and breathe . Stop and breathe

Guitar solo

See the stars shining overhead
Hear the silence screaming in your head
Feel the breeze touching your face
Sense the magic in your own space

(Chorus)
Stop, look, life's passing you by
Stop, listen, to your own cries
Taste the void all hollow and still
Yearning for you to ease the chill
Stop and breathe . Stop and breathe
