Song Meaning (Interpretation) of “Breach” by The Tower and The Fool
“Breach” by The Tower and The Fool explores the struggle of accepting loss and allowing for change. Change can be seen as a “breach” – a gap in our lives that threatens to overwhelm us. The song speaks to the heartbreak and sadness that come with saying goodbye to something familiar, and the courage it takes to push forward and be vulnerable to risk and uncertainty. Despite the pain of letting go, the song encourages us to embrace the new possibilities that come with change. Lines such as “I want to surrender to the same old heartache, just for a while” and “time will roll on, and time will bring new hope” show the sentiment that while it is hard to surrender to the fear of change, we must do it in order to move forward. The hope and optimism of the chorus “so take courage and march towards the breach” show that even if we fear change, it is a necessary part of life, and that we can find strength in ourselves to make it through.
