Breakdown — текст песни (Michael W. Smith)

Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick



Wasnt it long ago

Wasnt it on a new england coast

Wasnt it the standard - people praying to

The son and the father and the holy ghost

One nation over god

Is that what weve now become?

The founding fathers left a noble legacy

To their sons and daughters

To their sons and daughters

Look at what weve done

Look at what weve done



Chorus:

Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown

As we learn to bite the hand

That tries to feed us

Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown

If we say that we are free

Who will believe us

If we breakdown, breakdown, breakdown

Breakdown, break



See the powder on the glass

See the pillow on the street

See the charter of a modern love

With no obligations...or promises to meet



Hear the fear of disease

Hear the baby never born

Hear a people crying out

"somebody save us - oh, please somebody save us

From what were headed for - from what were headed for"



Chorus



Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown

As we learn to bite the hand

That tries to feed us

Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown



Chorus
