“Breathe Into Me” by Red

Red opened the account for End of Silence, the Christian rock band's debut full-length, with "Breathe Into Me", released on June 6, 2006 through Essential Records. The rollout had a personal touch: fans who had sent in pictures of their faces to help build up the album got the song delivered that same day. Anthony Armstrong, Rob Graves, Jasen Rauch and Jason McArthur share the writing credit.

The band has framed it as a song about falling, about running out of rope in a dark place full of anger and regret and finally admitting you need God. The chorus, as they tell it, is a frantic call for help and a prayer to be made new, even raised from the dead, and a way past wounds too deep to heal alone. The title track, "End of Silence", came next as a single.
