To Break Down
You lift me up
then drop me down
talk of the future
then shut me out
make all the jokes up
tell me I am corrupt
with attitude abrupt
then lable me a clown ,
you can't make your mind up
one minute is fine to touch
the next the barriers go up
and I am out of town .
I was the bullet
that you loaded down
wine in the gullet
we broke the speed of sound ,
you pulled to trigger
didn't like the bigger picture
and now I am some figure
you don't want to be around .
I did all I could for you
till in the face of blue
the love you returned was few
but still I fought on through
the whole time I thought
you knew
but your love never
really grew
where is the girl
I once knew
I think I might break down .
