break down slow

i was on the avenue

reeling off the energy

oh but you remain just forever on my brain

like a walking effigy

the pedestal was left for me

but i was so afraid that it wouldn't hold my weight

cos 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

you see i built an aviary

to hold in all my memories

i'm still afraid they might just fly away

so won'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

cos 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

oh this is what you get for chasing dreams

oh this is what you get for chasing dreams

oh this is what you get for chasing dreams

dreams

dreams

dreams

dreams
