A Second to Breathe
Yearning for Breath: Emma Remelle's Lyrical Tale
Lyrics
Its kinda funny you were thinking of me
Reflection on the mutual thoughts between the speaker and the person mentioned
Cause I was thinking of you
Reciprocal contemplation about each other
The other day
Reference to a specific time when the speaker was pondering
I overthought it like I usually do, but it was just an excuse
Overthinking, common for the speaker, used as an excuse
For me to say
The excuse served a purpose for the speaker to express something
Think I need you in small doses
Feeling the need for limited exposure to the person
I think I might be choking
Sense of suffocation or being overwhelmed by the person's presence
Yeah you knock the wind outta me
Impactful effect of the person on the speaker
No I dont think you joking
No belief that the person is joking about their impact
My systems over loading
Feeling overwhelmed, possibly emotionally or mentally
Yeah you knock the wind outta me
Reiteration of the profound effect the person has on the speaker
Need a second to, need a second to breathe
Expressing the need for a pause to regain composure
I, I, I
Repetition emphasizing the necessity for a breather
Need a second to, need a second to breathe
-I dont know whats coming over me
Feeling uncertain about the changes happening due to the person
But it's something to do, with the way that you move
Linking the changes to the person's behavior or presence
Damn tired of playing these games, think that its about time, for someone to lose
Tiredness with games, indicating a desire for resolution
Think I need you in small doses
Reiteration of the need for limited exposure to the person
I think I might be choking
Feeling overwhelmed or suffocated by the person
Yeah you knock the wind outta me
Reinforcing the impact of the person on the speaker
No I dont think you joking
No belief that the person's impact is a joke
My systems over loading
Feeling emotionally or mentally overloaded
Yeah you knock the wind outta me
Reiterating the profound impact of the person
Need a second to, need a second to breathe
Expressing the need for a pause to regain composure
I, I, I
Repetition emphasizing the necessity for a breather
Need a second to, need a second to breathe
-I still feel you eyes
Sensory awareness of the person's gaze affecting the speaker
Burning down through my thighs
Intense feeling of the person's gaze on the speaker
No i cant stand it
Expressing an inability to endure the intensity
And I know I can be
Acknowledgment of being a lot to handle
A Whole lot
Self-awareness about being challenging for others
To handle
Admission of the speaker's complexity
Need a second to, need a second to breathe
Expressing the need for a pause to regain composure
I, I, I
Repetition emphasizing the necessity for a breather
Need a second to, need a second to breathe
-I, I, I
-Need a second to, need a second to breathe
