Breakdown

(album: New Tradition - 2012)

I've watched you grow into beautiful
You carry on, as I sometimes do
They say it's my face,
but I see your mothers magic in everything that's you

And I love the way you always wake me from those stagnant, re-run dreams

I slowly break down following you
You get around so well without me
If I could break ground
and build a world to keep you in this state
So innocent and pure, I'd build it that way

I hope you know when it's critical
it's okay, rely on only me
If the wheels come off, and you're stranded on your way, remember
there's nothing I won't do

And I miss the way you always wake me from those stagnant, re-run dreams

I slowly break down following you
You get around so well without me
If I could beak ground
and build a world to keep you in this state
So innocent and pure, I'd build it that way

I'll keep you safe inside
(build it that way)
Save you from the gradual decline
(build it that way)
Until the day you left with,
trust is taken from your heart and mine
Keep it alive in your smile

I slowly break down following you
You get around so well without me
If I could break ground
and build a world to keep you in this state
So innocent and pure
I'd build it that way

Build it that way
Build it that way
