Just Breathe (feat. Christian Älvestam) Lyrics

So now you try, but the blade is primed to just cut you down again
To no avail, this fix divine was wrought to do you in

Seemingly endless, beckoning debt
Vacant and nameless, where is the end?
Aching just to endure again sweet loss
Able again to feel
This is real

Just breathe
Suffer again
Look back
Stand in the wake and breathe
Wait for the end
Fight back
This isn't over

One single touch will further crush your corrupted state of mind
You carve the way for regret to take you further down the line

This isn't over

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Addiction can be a killer — to our spiritual lives, emotional lives, mental wellbeing, relationships, and our physical lives as well. This song is meant as an encouraging word for people under the burden of addiction, whether that be drugs, alcohol, pornography, or just a habitual misuse of free will. The song offers an alternative to giving up and letting the addiction take over. The lyrics urge the afflicted to fight back, even when you feel like you’re already too far-gone.

"You hear, O Lord, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry…" - Psalm 10:17

I just want to start by sayign I am deeply in love with this song in both lyricism and musically. In my opinion it is saying that there will always be pain in life, but as long as you feel that pain you are still alive. You can't give up just because things don't go the way you want them to... Not to say all the failures won't get to you, creating a "corrupted state of mind" in which one single thing could send you over the edge...

beautifully written, I expect nothing less from demon hunter.
