Breathing Is Hazardous by Karen Mok

I like Breathing is Hazardous by Karen Mok, the melody sounds so good. I like to listen to such songs at work because it allows me to block out all distractions and concentrate fully on my work.

This is how the song’s lyrics means after I tried to translate it into English :-

I’m lacking in oxygen to the point where it’s like i’m imagining things
Lying on the floor and without energy
Closing my eyes and using only my skin to feel, this shoudn’t be normal
You used to be here
You haven’t left, unlike your steps
From your odor,
A wall is built
I’m taking another breath
To preserve these beautiful memories
The pain that is felt now

Once it was the most touching sweetness
Our old memories fill the air
Every breath bring harm
You’re still at the bedside, still in the living room
And on my mind
Loneliness fills the air
Breathing in depression
i’d rather shut off the air
Breathing you in will wet my eyes
Staying strong, trying to stand up again
Willingly starting to learn
Quickly adapting to
The brutal low air pressure
As if lacking in courage
I’m afraid to lose you
Also lacking in moral character
My heart and body have escaped
i’m taking another breath
Addicted to this lifelessness
Romance in full of air
Our old memories fill the air
Each breath brings harm
You’re still at the bedside, still in the living room
And on my mind
Loneliness fills the air
Breathing in depression
I’d rather shut off the air
Breathing you in will wet my eyes
If i suffocate, it won’t be an accident
Won’t breath, won’t wait
i don’t need you, i don’t need you
Need to clear my head
Need to be active
Open every window
I’m not afraid of you, i’m not afraid of you
I’m afraid that breathing is hazardous

Great theme song with great melody. The more you listen, the more you’ll like this song.

About the origin of the song, Karen said that it was created during the pandemic and matched the situation that everyone was going through at that time.

“The whole world was suddenly shifting and changing, and everyone can resonate with that,” she said.

As a singer who’s been in the industry for many years, Karen feels it’s important to bring joy to everyone in the midst of pain.

She also wrote on Instagram, “Where words fail, music speaks.”

The world is not the world it used to be, so we have to use new methods to move forward and survive.

Feeling stuck and do not know how to move forward? Stop thinking and start acting – even a small step will help you move forward and live a full and happy life again.

Obstacles are there to be overcome. Move on and enjoy life to the fullest!
