Breakdown

You threw me out on the sidewalk last night

You dumped my clothes out the window too

I threw rocks at the glass panes and wood

We need to talk I needed a word with you

We made up on the couch on the floor

But you told me I needed to lose

A few pounds on the body I love

I went to work and I talked with a man I grew up with

He said, "Oh, a sad sight you are. You are slowly unraveling me.

Oh, no tears on a Tuesday you need better than what he can give you"

He held me tight for longer than normal

I cuddled close I couldn't believe it

He whispered words in my ear it was nice

But it wasn't the same when he called me the wrong name

I ran off down the street down the corner

And he caught me in his arms

And once again he delivered a comfort

A need i had known ever since i was young

He said "Oh a sweet sight you are you are slowly unraveling me.

Oh, I'd kill for your heart, what a strange man indeed who would lose you."

Oh a sweet sight you are you are slowly undoing me

Oh, I'd kill for your heart, what a strange man indeed who could lose you.
