Cold War Kids On The Night My Love Broke Through Lyrics

On The Night My Love Broke Through Lyrics

On the night that my love broke through

On the night that my love broke
through

Revelations that came unglued

On the night that my love
broke through



Cell doors were opened,

God stepped out the
way,

prisoners got one acre of land and one year's pay.



Flower's long since dead

stiffened at the neck.

Colours came back
in green and yellow and in red.



Unemployed cowboys

staggered
on Fairfax.

Trucks pulled up and fifteen men hollered and hopped in
back.



A copy of Vechouski[?], 

at the bottom of the
stack,

got picked up by some dropout who read it front to back



Send me out the tin hands of the past![?]



Hands are crawling out
of

grimy bathtub drains.

Janitor was laughing, he had finally gone
insane.



City buses swerving,

arriving right on time.

Vending machines were serving glasses of white wine by the dime.



Street lights got a burst of

electricity.

Sparks danced across
windshields like a grand finale.



Metal detectors beeping,

sound was deafening.

Everywhere bleeding at dug up wedding rings.



We all stopped to listen to it sing!



On the night that my
love broke through..

On the night that my love broke through..

Revelations that came unglued..

On the night that my love broke
through..

On the night..

On the night..

On the night..

On the night..
