Breakdown Slow

[Verse 1]

I was on the avenue

Reeling off the energy

Oh, but you remained

Just forever on my brain

Like a walking effigy

A pedestal was left for me

But I was so afraid

That it wouldn’t hold my weight

[Chorus]

'Cause, baby, I ain’t got time for your show

You see, I’m under a change inside like a cancer grows

And now that honey I’m breaking down oh-so-slow

I got all the time to let you go

[Verse 2]

You see, I built an aviary

To hold in all my memories

But I’m still afraid

They might just fly away

Don't you tear my love down from the apple tree

You got fruit in your hands, but it ain’t for free

And I’m not sure

Of anything anymore

[Chorus]

'Cause, baby, I ain’t got time for your show

You see, I’m under a change inside like a cancer grows

And now that honey I’m breaking down oh-so-slow

I got all the time to let you go

To let you go

[Bridge]

No, this is what you get for chasing dreams

No, this is what you get for chasing dreams

No, this is what you get for chasing

[Outro]

Dreams

Dreams

Dreams

Dreams
