Start Of The Breakdown Lyrics
Scratch the ice
Let the telephone ring
Sense of time is a powerful thing
And we love to laugh
Love to cry
Half alive
We love to
Go slow when we're dancing for rain
Dry skin flakes where there's ice in the vien
And we love to cry
Half alive
Is this the start of the breakdown ?
Scratch the earth
Dig the burial ground
Sense of time won't be easily found
And ten out of ten
For the ones who defend
Pretend too
Breakdown is a final demand
( We stand firm with our heads in our hands )
As we love to to cry
Half alive
Is this the start of the breakdown ?
I can't understand you
Is this the start of the breakdown ?
Let the telephone ring
Sense of time is a powerful thing
And we love to laugh
Love to cry
Half alive
We love to
Go slow when we're dancing for rain
Dry skin flakes where there's ice in the vien
And we love to cry
Half alive
Dig the burial ground
Sense of time won't be easily found
And ten out of ten
For the ones who defend
Pretend too
Breakdown is a final demand
( We stand firm with our heads in our hands )
As we love to to cry
Half alive
I can't understand you
Is this the start of the breakdown ?

Roland's father struggled multiple breakdowns in his life, yet one made him semi-bedridden. This really got to Roland and thus this song was made. I love the end, when Roland screams 'I can't understand you' before the outro.
loove this song. Its about primal scream
