Breathing

This song is probably about God. Religion is a big part of the band's life and music. Vocalist/guitarist Jason Wade and bass player Sergio Andrade's parents were all Christian missionaries.

Lead singer Jason Wade said: "This is another love song that can be interpreted in a couple of different ways. The verses say: 'I'm finding my way back to sanity again,' so it's like trying really hard and then getting back to the place you started from. Then the bridge says, 'I don't want a thing from you / Bet you're tired of me waiting for the scarps to fall off of your table to the ground.' It's kind of like not wanting anything from anyone, not hanging on every word they say and just having faith you'll be able to 'be here now,' which is how the song ends."

Lifehouse had a monster hit with their first single, "Hanging By a Moment," but had trouble returning to the Hot 100, in part because that song took up so much space on the airwaves (it was the #1 radio song of 2001 in America). The second single, "Sick Cycle Carousel," didn't reach the chart, and "Breathing" stalled at #115.
