lyrics

Let’s make a deal
And cross our hearts to seal it
With nothing but our words to heal or break us now

Did you call it in the air?
Are you so far gone, beyond repair?
The faces and the monuments are fading now

Break it down
Pull the needles out
One by one we’re breaking down

It’s raining now
When you’re walking in the woods
You can’t feel what you should
The trees will block it out

But you know it’s happening
And the water level’s rising
Inch by inch we’re climbing
There’s no denying now

Break it down
Pull the needles out
One by one we’re breaking down
One by one we’re breaking down

You shook my hand time after time
Smiled and looked me in the eye
And when the wound had begun to heal
We overheard how you really feel

So where are we now?
And what are your conclusions?
That the world's been in collusion?
We’re out to get you now

You’re hanging on
So desperately it hurts me
The common ground you cling to is fading now

Break it down
Pull the needles out
One by one we’re breaking down
One by one we’re breaking down
One by one we’ll break it down
