Breaking Down Lyrics

We're a riddle in 9 syllables 

 Black and white and gray all over 

 She smiles and looks at me 

 Bathed in waves of static cover

 I've got a notion to escape this ocean

 I'm tired of crawling through the same old emotions

 Refrains of empathy 

 Distorting throug an 8 bit fog

 

 (Where do we go now?) 

 Take it all to a new location

 (Watch it all fall down) 

 I'd rather not talk about it just now

 We'll build a new philosophy 

 A brand new version of the same old story

 While in reality 

 We're breaking down 

 

 Another try and we're still here baby 

 Negotiating or complications 

 She crys and slaps my face 

 Taunting me for new translations

 Maybe I got up on the wrong side of town

 Maybe I misstook your up for down 

 Maybe I should polish your crown 

 

 (Where do we go now?) 

 Take it all to a new location

 (Watch it all fall down) 

 I'd rather not talk about it just now

 We'll build a new philosophy 

 A brand new version of the same old story

 While in reality we're breaking down (x3)
