Audrey Assad's song is a reflective and introspective piece about personal growth, self-examination, and finding peace in the midst of anxiety and weakness. The lyrics pose questions about kindness, honesty, and bravery, and explore the struggle to let go of mistakes and heartache. The recurring theme of breathing serves as a metaphor for holding on to something greater when meaning and feeling are lost. It gently points to a spiritual trust and surrender, suggesting a deeper reliance on God's presence even when words fail.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Am I kinder than I have been?
Am I honest with myself?
Am I willing to examine all I've done?
Am I tender with what's broken?
Am I brave enough to get well?
Am I searching for a deeper wisdom?
Can I see I'm not my mistakes?
Will I learn to let them go?
How do I feel beyond my heartache
And hold on to something more?
I don't need to know your story
I don't need to know your name
I don't need to understand you anymore
Can I breathe when I am anxious?
Breathe in deep, and breathe in slow
How do I look beyond my weakness
And hold on to something more
Than everything I thought I knew before?
Can I hold on to something more?
When I can't find my meaning
When I have lost all feeling
There's nothing left but breathing
I can breathe
When I can't find my meaning
When I have lost all feeling
There's nothing left but breathing
So I breathe
When I can't find my meaning
When I have lost all feeling
There's nothing left but breathing
I can breathe
When I can't find my meaning
When I have lost all feeling
There's nothing left but breathing
So I breathe
There's nothing left but breathing
There's nothing left but breathing
