Boy & Bear – Break Down Slow lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was on the avenue
Reeling off the energy
Oh, but you remained
Just forever on my brain
Like a walking effigy
A pedestal was left for me
But I was so afraid
That it wouldn’t hold my weight
[Chorus]
'Cause, baby, I ain’t got time for your show
You see, I’m under a change inside like a cancer grows
And now that honey I’m breaking down oh-so-slow
I got all the time to let you go
[Verse 2]
You see, I built an aviary
To hold in all my memories
But I’m still afraid
They might just fly away
Don't you tear my love down from the apple tree
You got fruit in your hands, but it ain’t for free
And I’m not sure
Of anything anymore
[Chorus]
'Cause, baby, I ain’t got time for your show
You see, I’m under a change inside like a cancer grows
And now that honey I’m breaking down oh-so-slow
I got all the time to let you go
To let you go...
[Bridge]
No, this is what you get for chasing dreams
No, this is what you get for chasing dreams
No, this is what you get for chasing...
[Outro] x4
Dreams...
I was on the avenue
Reeling off the energy
Oh, but you remained
Just forever on my brain
Like a walking effigy
A pedestal was left for me
But I was so afraid
That it wouldn’t hold my weight
[Chorus]
'Cause, baby, I ain’t got time for your show
You see, I’m under a change inside like a cancer grows
And now that honey I’m breaking down oh-so-slow
I got all the time to let you go
[Verse 2]
You see, I built an aviary
To hold in all my memories
But I’m still afraid
They might just fly away
Don't you tear my love down from the apple tree
You got fruit in your hands, but it ain’t for free
And I’m not sure
Of anything anymore
[Chorus]
'Cause, baby, I ain’t got time for your show
You see, I’m under a change inside like a cancer grows
And now that honey I’m breaking down oh-so-slow
I got all the time to let you go
To let you go...
[Bridge]
No, this is what you get for chasing dreams
No, this is what you get for chasing dreams
No, this is what you get for chasing...
[Outro] x4
Dreams...
