"Breathe is the 4th track off the Kaboom! EP by Jay Wires."

"In contrast with the preceding singles from ‘Kaboom!’ [posted here], ‘Breathe’ is positively upbeat. Its lyrics contain a sense of soothing, calming relief after the heartbreak and emotional upheaval elsewhere on the EP, and its sounds and rhythms are nothing short of ascendant and rapturous. It is a hopeful song about rekindling the fires of romance.
The inspiration for the sense of optimism came from a walk that Jay took in an abandoned park in Astoria, Queens. “I was walking through the long, uncut grass during the COVID lockdown,” he remembers. “The climatic break and instrumental section that follows it in 'Breathe' were meant to capture that euphoric feeling of two people getting back together.”
‘Breathe’ provides a transcendent conclusion to ‘Kaboom!’, the debut Jay Wires EP. Two years in the making, the EP contains 4 songs freighted with intense emotion and epic electronic arrangements. These songs are an expression of what Jay calls “electro-pop therapy” and were inspired by a painful break-up during the isolation and loneliness of COVID lockdown."

lyrics
Sometimes two souls
Once intertwined
Will unwind
And drift apart
Two lucky stars misaligned
The universe is cruel
The universe is kind
Breathe in
Breathe out
Free the spirit and the mind
Let go of fears and doubts
And step into the light
Breathe in
Breathe out
Feel the energy tonight
Trust the magic in the sky
Let it warm you deep inside
Find them
Touch them
Hold them
Wrap around them
Lift them high
Gaze into their eyes
And let your two hearts reunite
Find them
Touch them
Hold them
Wrap around them
Lift them high
Gaze into their eyes
And let your two hearts reunite
Sometimes two souls
Once intertwined
Will unwind
And drift apart
Two lucky stars misaligned
The universe is cruel
The universe is kind
Breathe in
Breathe out
Free the spirit and the mind
Let go of fears and doubts
And step into the light
Breathe in
Breathe out
Feel the energy tonight
Trust the magic in the sky
Let it warm you deep inside
Find them
Touch them
Hold them
Wrap around them
Lift them high
Gaze into their eyes
And let your two hearts reunite
Find them
Touch them
Hold them
Wrap around them
Lift them high
Gaze into their eyes
And let your two hearts reunite
