Maroon 5 - Harder To Breathe Lyrics






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
This 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'm 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."
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."
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?

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."
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?

  6. T.... L....

    My Jam ♥️. Adam is in the house! YES

  7. T.... A....

    adam, adam, aadaamm leeviinee😘❤😊

  8. R.... K....

    I cant believe I've never seen the other members faces till now

  9. T.... N....

    Now they sound like an moron

  10. r.... k....

    Mindhunters (2004) brought me here!

  11. B.... ....

    Don’t do cocaine...





    Meth is cheaper

  12. s.... p....

    Adam you have changed your new songs aren’t that good anymore🙁☹️

  13. T.... R....

    Their best song by far!

  14. S.... R....

    11 years ago..it's means your are the legend !!

  15. D.... W....

    All I can think of is that one scene in One Tree Hill.

  16. s.... ....

    Was that a freaking guitar solo on a Maroon 5 song? What happened to you, man?.. you didn't have to sell your soul

  17. g.... ....

    The first two albums were the best - since then there has been a marked decline in quality of music matched by the decline in Adam's physical appearance

  18. G.... T....

    Awesome song

  19. R.... ....

    If you’re a number one fan of maroon 5, you’ll remember this song..first song I heard by them

  20. R.... ....

    Remember when Maroon 5 was actually a band

  21. d.... w....

    I'm honestly hating of the comments that say they're songs were better back then. To me they're songs are amazing and they evolved with Adam and the rest of the band members. If they all felt like changing their sound then what is so bad about that. They all sound amazing, period. They didn't sell out, they followed what they wanted to do. That's how life is. Imagine if people stayed the same, it's impossible. People must evolve according to the way they feel. Their music is amazing and will continue to stay amazing.❤️❤️❤️ #maroon5islife

  22. P.... J....

    Fuck I love this song

  23. I.... -....

    When maroon 5 was maroon 5

  24. J.... ....

    2020 anyone?

  25. S.... K....

    He’s so little!!!! ❤️💕💖💘

  26. K.... K....

    2020👍👍❤

  27. j.... ....

    "How dare you say that my behaviour's unacceptable
    So condescending unnecessarily critical"
    When the song was written it was for the label to back off. These days it's for jilted ex-fans 😀

  28. s.... h....

    am I the only one who thinks that that Overexposed is a good album?

  29. A.... T....

    this is how i remember adam levine...AMAZING SINGER,SEXY,AND BEYOND TALENTED..THIS WAS WHEN MAROON 5 WAS GREAT!!!!wish i could say that now in 2020 :/

  30. S.... A....

    Throwback Maroon 5 was rock

  31. N.... 2....

    Ah yes Maroon 5, the band not only sold out once, but TWICE. They started out as a band that your Dad would like, then they sold out into a band that your Mum would like, and now they're a band that your Daughter would like.

  32. m.... b....

    Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
    Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did

  33. M.... ....

    I remember first time I heard this song I knew Maroon 5 would be big

  34. D.... S....

    Amooooooo

  35. T.... M....

    ah yes

    the better Maroon 5

  36. E.... J....

    Why can’t they go back to this style of music 😞

  37. F.... I....

    He's fav song !? 🤗

  38. l.... ....

    This whole album defined my highschool years.

  39. R.... ....

    Lmaooo the VH1 days

  40. T.... S....

    Love this song it reminds me of my male friend it is hard to breath when he is around because he is so sexy with he big smile and sexy looks and eyes

    T.... S....

    @Flatheads Rebuked yes and not to mention he is going dear as well but that's not storing him enjoy ing live. And if you are wondering if I am kind of chatting you up will then yes I am a single mother with two kids and lonely as all get out I hope you like fat chicks because I am on the chubby side😋

    T.... S....

    @Flatheads Rebuked we'll hear is a bit to my age I had my daughter 21,and my at 24, and they are 22nsd 19 years years sonic you have added me age up for me to be in my fortyites then you are right and yes my male friend is younger then me he is thirty nine years old🙂

    T.... S....

    Tanya Scott Well it’s good that he’s not letting his losing some of his senses make him bitter, he’s handling it gracefully from what I understand of what you said. And lol I myself am a bit chubby 😂 I think you’re 43 right?

    T.... S....

    @Flatheads Rebuked well one number off I am 44 single and ready to look for love. With my Luke you are a already have a girl and and iam supplies to wait for his answer about him being my boyfriend 😋

    T.... S....

  41. L.... M....

    So much better back in the day..

  42. H.... S....

    Why this generation dont view this song ... I dont know art in this generation

  43. H.... S....

    Stay strong Australia

  44. c.... p....

    The reason they sold out is because the label did not want a repeat of their first album. It took 2 years of rereleasing it for it to get heard. So it put them in a space where they have to be successful the next time around.

  45. K.... A....

    31st Dec, 2019. Anyone?

    K.... A....

    Hi there, im from a decade later

    K.... A....

    I’m from 3020 how are you earthlings doing

    K.... A....

    Ran Franco I listen to this everyday.

    K.... A....

    Grizzly Playz Gamez I listen to this everyday.

  46. A.... 2....

    Maroon 7 honestly sounds better. Great band tho.

  47. M.... L....

    My fav Maroon tune. Hope you guys can rock another like this sometime soon 🤟

  48. A.... ....

    Pop so hard , almost sounds like rock

  49. A.... P....

    Pressure creates diamonds. Their own fame basically crushed their artistic ability. This song, for example, happened because they were having issues with their recording company. That's where the emotion comes from. Art without strong emotion just isn't as good.
    Adam having trouble with a record company nowadays? Ha. They'd bend over backwards to fulfill even the most pettiest request no matter how unreasonable he was. Most people in his life are probably like that. There is no pressure in his life. A life free of ups and downs, no negative emotion is a life without any real beauty and art.

    A.... P....

    Andrew Panin True, thing happens with Star Wars the Clone Wars, and rebels.

    A.... P....

    No other way to explain it besides this, great comment

  50. J.... B....

    This was back when Maroon 5 wasn’t
    Maroon 1

  51. A.... T....

    I WOULD'VE LOVED MAROON 5 MORE IF THEIR SONGS SOUNDED LIKE THIS

  52. A.... T....

    okay this is really weird but this song is so good i wanna lick the screen

  53. T.... C....

    I remember this coming out before "This Love", I saw the video when I was like 11 years old and thought they were soooo cool, haha. Songs about Jane was my first CD for my first very ugly, but adored CD player.

  54. x.... x....

    Just when you thought there was no worthwhile rock music any more.... but then they sold out...

  55. h.... a....

    1. She Will Be Loved
