Breakers Roar Lyrics

Oh, how the breakers roar
They keep pulling me farther from shore
Thoughts turn to a love so kind
Just to keep me from losing my mind
So enticing, deep dark seas
It's so easy to drown in the dream

Oh, and everything is not what it seems
This life is but a dream
Shatter illusions that hold your spirit down
Open up your heart and you'll find love all around
Breathing and moving are healing
And soothing away
All the pain in life holding you down

Bone breaks and heals
Oh, but heartaches can kill
From the inside, so it seems
Oh, I'm telling you it's all a dream
It's all a dream
It's all a dream
It's all a dream
It's all a
It's all a dream

What is the Meaning of Breakers Roar?

In this deeply introspective song, the artist explores the concept of life's struggles likened to a turbulent sea. The 'breakers' symbolize challenges that try to pull him away from stability or 'shore'. He yearns for a comforting love to keep his sanity amidst these trials. The lyrics also delve into existential thoughts, suggesting that life and its suffering are perhaps just an illusion or a dream. This realization encourages listeners to break free from negativity, open their hearts, and find love everywhere. Despite physical pain being temporary and healable, emotional pain can be more destructive if not addressed. The repetitive phrase "It's all a dream" serves as both a soothing mantra and a reminder of life's transient nature. #LifeStruggles #EmotionalHealing #ExistentialThoughts
