You Make Me Breathe
Emotional Journey: Seeking Redemption and Trust
Lyrics
Never knew how much you can mean to me
Expressing a newfound realization of the significance someone holds in the speaker's life.
Till the moment you saw how untrue I could be
Acknowledging personal flaws and the impact they may have had on the relationship.
Never meant to cause you sorrow
Stating the speaker's lack of intention to cause pain or distress to the person addressed.
Never meant to cause you any pain
Reiterating the absence of intent to cause harm or suffering.
But with all the best intentions
Despite good intentions, recognizing the likelihood of repeating mistakes in the future.
I can't promise I won't do it again
Expressing an inability to guarantee avoidance of similar actions in the future.
I don't know what it is that drives me
Reflecting on an unknown driving force compelling self-destructive behavior.
To make me want to throw it all away
Expressing a struggle with the desire to discard everything valuable in life.
'cause you're really very precious
Acknowledging the preciousness of the person and a desire for them to stay.
And I do so dearly want you to stay
Expressing a strong desire for the person to remain in the speaker's life.
Gets harder all the time to be away from you
Describing the increasing difficulty of being apart from the addressed person.
And I want to work it out
Expressing a desire to resolve issues and build trust in the relationship.
So you can grow to trust me too
Expressing a wish for mutual trust to develop between the speaker and the addressed person.
Like I trust you
Comparing the speaker's trust in the addressed person to the desired reciprocal trust.
Time is not the healer
Rejecting the notion that time alone can heal emotional wounds.
I was hoping he would be
Expressing disappointment in the unmet expectation of time healing emotional pain.
I'm still tender and bruised
Describing emotional vulnerability and sensitivity despite the passage of time.
But I want you to touch me
Expressing a desire for physical closeness and comfort from the addressed person.
There's healing in your touch
Recognizing healing power in the physical touch of the addressed person.
And you're the one I need to be with
Affirming a strong emotional connection and the need to be with the addressed person.
I want to give myself to you
Expressing a willingness to open up and be vulnerable in the relationship.
Give you all I have to give
Pledging to give everything the speaker has in the relationship.
You made me live
Acknowledging the positive transformative impact the addressed person has had on the speaker's life.
You made me breathe
Highlighting the profound influence of the addressed person on the speaker's ability to breathe and live.
You made me breathe
Reaffirming the essential role of the addressed person in the speaker's existence.
