"Harder To Breathe" lyrics
"Harder To Breathe"
How dare you say that my behaviour's unacceptable
So condescending unnecessarily critical
I have the tendency of getting very physical
So watch your step 'cause if I do you'll need a miracle
You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here
The double vision I was seeing is finally clear
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone
Not fit to fuckin' tread the ground that I am walking on
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
"There's no way we're gonna give up."
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe?
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe?
What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head
You should know better you never listened to a word I said
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
"There's no way we're gonna give up."
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
She said
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe?
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe?
And does it kill?
Does it burn?
Is it painful to learn
That it's me that has all the control?
Does it thrill?
Does it sting
When you feel what I bring
And you wish that you had me to hold?
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
"There's no way we're gonna give up."
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe?
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe?
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe?

The lead single from the album, this song was based on one of the previous relationships which Adam Levine had with a woman Jane Herman, who was the "muse" for the album, according to the frontman.
Vocalist Adam Levine told in an interview with MTV News in August 2002, "That song comes sheerly from wanting to throw something. It was the 11th hour, and the label wanted more songs. It was the last crack. I was just pissed. I wanted to make a record and the label was applying a lot of pressure, but I'm glad they did."
The acoustic version of this track was included on Maroon 5's EP "1.22.03.Acoustic" (2004), the live version appears on "Live – Friday the 13th" album (2005).

John Mayer - "Your Body Is A Wonderland" We got the afternoon
You got this room for two
One thing I've left to do
Discover me
Discovering you
One mile to every inch of
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and
Your bubblegum...
Gym Class Heroes - "The Queen And I" I love it how she breathes booze in the mornin'
Man, it's so sexy how she can't remember last night
I made a fatal mistake letting her drink again
But who the hell am I to tell her how to live her...
Train - "Marry Me" Forever can never be long enough for me
To feel like I've had long enough with you
Forget the world now, we won't let them see
But there's one thing left to do
Now that the weight has lifted
Love...
Coldplay - "Magic" Call it magic
Call it true
Call it magic
When I'm with you
And I just got broken
Broken into two
Still I call it magic
When I'm next to you
And I don't, and I don't, and I don't, and I don't
No, I...
Calvin Harris - "My Way" Why wait to say, at least I did it my way
Lie awake, two faced
But in my heart I understand
I made my move and it was all about you
Now I feel so far removed
You were the one thing in my way
You...
