Breathless

Bella Ruby's song 'Breathless' is a poignant exploration of love's intoxicating and often overwhelming nature. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone deeply in love, willing to take risks and dive into the unknown for the sake of their beloved. The recurring imagery of water symbolizes both the depth of their emotions and the potential danger of losing oneself in love. The line 'I'll dip my feet into the water, I'll try not to drown' suggests a cautious approach to love, yet the protagonist is irresistibly drawn to their partner, unable to resist the pull of their emotions.

The song also delves into the internal conflict and vulnerability that come with love. The protagonist paces their apartment, consumed by thoughts of their partner, and grapples with the fear that 'all good things come to an end.' This fear of loss and heartbreak is a universal theme, resonating with anyone who has experienced the highs and lows of a deep emotional connection. The repeated phrase 'I'm broken, broken hearted' underscores the pain and fragility that accompany such intense feelings.

Despite the pain, the protagonist's love remains steadfast and genuine. The declaration 'The pain in my chest leaves me breathless, but when I said I loved you I meant it' highlights the sincerity and depth of their emotions. The song's repetition of 'It'll be just you and me' serves as a hopeful reminder of the desire for a shared future, free from the burdens of the past. Bella Ruby's 'Breathless' captures the essence of love's duality—its ability to bring both immense joy and profound sorrow, leaving listeners reflecting on their own experiences with love and heartache.
