lyrics

Breakdown
The systematic shut down
A rocket heading inbound
It’s holding fast and clinging on to life
We’re sealing our own fate
It’s not up for debate
These extremes only serve to build divide
The tensions ever building
relationship are wilting
Away until there is nothing left
Get out of the way
There’s nothing left to say
We’re witnessing a meltdown in effect

And I
I do not know
What this will bring
I just know it’s gonna sting
All hope is gone
The cost withdrawn
It’s time to break down everything

Too late
Was never gonna sedate
This bursting open flood gate
The water levels rising past our heads
Swimming in the fear
We know the end is near
Can’t fight the overwhelming sense of dread
We’re in this game together
Let’s change it for the better
It's time for us to even up the score
Pay off all the debt
And get out of this mess
And find a way to swim back to the shore

And I
I do not know
What this will bring
I just know it’s gonna sting
All hope is gone
The cost withdrawn
It’s time to break down everything

And we
Won’t be alone
To make it right
We have to stand up for this fight
We’ll change the course
A show of force
We'll bring everything to light

And I
I do not know
What this will bring
I just know it’s gonna sting
All hope is gone
The cost withdrawn
It’s time to break down everything

And we
Won’t be alone
To make it right
We have to stand up for this fight
We’ll change the course
A show of force
We'll bring everything to light
