Breakdown
Youth Brigade [LA] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
and i won't pretend that it's ok and look the other way
I'll never know
I'll never know what it means to be you
so many talking shit
will we ever get a clue?
I want to break down but don't know if I can
Try to re-write history the lines got drawn long ago
The greatest mystery
Why have we not destroyed ourselves?
Never know I'll never know can't crawl inside your mind
Will we ever embrace the thought
We have so little time!
I want to break down but don't know if I can
Need to break down but don't know if I can
I want to break down but don't know if I can
Need to break down but don't know if I can
I want to break down but don't know if I can
Need to break down but don't know if I can
The lyrics of the song "Breakdown" by Youth Brigade [LA] express frustration and confusion about the messed up things people do and the lack of understanding and empathy among them.

The song questions why humans have not destroyed each other yet and reflects on the urgency of time.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I want to break down but don't know if I can" and "Need to break down but don't know if I can," implying a sense of overwhelming emotions and vulnerability. The singer seems to feel trapped in a state of helplessness and uncertainty, unable to move forward or cope with the chaos and injustices of the world around them.
Overall, the lyrics of "Breakdown" convey a sense of deep introspection and concern for the state of humanity. They highlight the need for greater understanding, compassion, and self-reflection to combat the destructive tendencies of society.
