Breakdown
Crack the Sky Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Breakdown ... Life isn't easy

Everyone pushing so hard
I hear them laughing
I can see the red line
Now I'm on the red line
Breakdown, Breakdown, Breakdown
Breakdown ... cold sweat in the middle of the night
Breakdown ... I'm so confused

Why are they pushing so hard?
Why are they laughing?
I can see the red line
Now I'm on the red line
Breakdown, Breakdown, Breakdown





I'm okay ... a little love and it all goes away
I'm allright ... a little love and I'll make it through the night
