Breakdown

[Verse 1]
I write my name down at the bottom and there's closure
I crack my brittle hands, I'm feeling so much older
And now I understand why they call it a breakthrough
Air rushes through the hole I didn't fix to take you
So single-mindedly I toiled on my own so
I shouldn't be surprised to find myself alone; solo
Awaiting revelries and victories with myself
The puzzle is complete and so I drink to my health

[Chorus]
The breakthrough; the breakdown
The perfection situates, but you didn't stick around
I breakdown, I can't break through
All my timelines fall away, drifting out my field of view

[Verse 2]
Drifting back to better times guided by ethanol
3 AM, mass again, we found a protocol
Untangling the knots we tied ourselves together
Until exhausted, finally we cut the tether
All aboard the carousel, we're going round again
So many cycles in my mind, a mental loop inside my brain
And now I understand why they call it a breakthrough
Hotel corridors and bathroom floors, I tear myself in two

[Chorus]
The breakthrough; the breakdown
The perfection situates, but you didn't stick around
I breakdown, I can't break through
All my timelines fall away, drifting out my field of view

[Bridge]
The breakthrough; the breakdown
The perfection situates, but you didn't stick around
I breakdown, I can't break through
All my timelines fall away, drifting out my field of view

[Outro]
The breakthrough; the breakdown
The perfection situates, but you didn't stick around
I breakdown, I can't break through
All my timelines fall away, drifting out my field of view
All my timelines fall away, drifting out my field of view
