Breathing On My Own Lyrics
Breathe again
I'm living on your air tonight
Never knowing when you're cutting off.
Oh you have a way
That makes it hard to sleep alone.
And just when the dream gets filled
You always seem to have to go.
So here I am alone again
Waiting for the story to finally end.
While the world
Spins around
It's out of my hands.
Don't even try to understand.
And I guess it's time to tell you
What you should already know.
Oh you know
I'm better breathing on my own.
All alone.
I'm living on your air tonight
Never knowing when you're cutting off.
Oh you have a way
That makes it hard to sleep alone.
And just when the dream gets filled
You always seem to have to go.
So here I am alone again
Waiting for the story to finally end.
While the world
Spins around
It's out of my hands.
Don't even try to understand.
What you should already know.
Oh you know
I'm better breathing on my own.
All alone.

This song is about a girl who gave her heart to something but everytime she makes an effort she is disappointed and she's tired of depending on that thing so she had decided to let go.
Its about addition. She fell in love with someone with a black-hole. Its like a case of body snatchers. She iives threw his air, she needs him. She dosnt have much of a choice to how the world feels when shes been cutt off from his air, because it gives a "soul sucking" feeling. He dosnt care about her but needs her posstive attention, In his manipulative nature he lacks normal human comunication and will simply stop speaking to her, and replace her funtion, with another sorce. He cant go without sorces thow, then he would exsists. Hes an adict of his own. That two something he can't help, just how he is wirred, he can't trust himself.
