Songfacts®:

  • This was the debut single from Christian metal band Red. Guitarist Jasen Rauch explained the song in publicity materials: "On our own, life can lead us to dark places full of anger, mistakes and regrets. This song is about 'falling,' finally reaching the end of our rope, where we realize at last ... we need God. The chorus, 'Breathe Your life into me,' is a desperate cry for help, a plea for renewal, rebirth – even resurrection. It's about overcoming wounds and consequences we could never overcome alone."

  • Immortalshadow0168How did you not noticed Desi? xD
    What do you expect breathe into me means? It literally shows how much we need God. Here is the Bible verse about it. “He knows how much pain we deal with. who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” Corinthians 1:3
