Lyrics

Take

A tripped switch, the chewed wires connecting
Everyone has a ceiling, every feeling is a wire
And every feeling is a wire

Unfit and childish, so childish
The soup kitchen, family Christmas evading
Here for the taking

Taking breaks the heart of love
And taking breaks the heart of love

The street was a river
Swallowed the dim light whole and shivered
When I think of you
I see a child crying, humming this tune

Singing taking breaks the heart of love
Taking breaks thе heart of love

To back in Neapoli
Chеwed thumbs again
When it comes again

"I need a home and this isn't a job"
"And why more records when everything's melting?"
Without the feeling that I had for healing
Every feeling is a wire
Every feeling is a wire

And taking breaks the heart of love
Taking breaks the heart of love
Taking breaks the heart of love
Taking breaks the heart of love
Taking breaks the heart of love
Taking breaks the heart of love
Taking breaks the heart of love
