Cover art for Leaky Breaks lyrics by Manchester Orchestra

I didn't think MO could make a song sadder than I Can Feel A Hot One. This song proves that theory wrong. It's so rewarding even after many, many listens.

I love how the structure of the song repeats itself over and over again like a bad memory.

So many metaphors in this song it's almost too much to break down but more than anything I think this spells out what kind of asshole Andy can be. Also how he realizes he's just as much to blame for everything in his faulty relationship as the other person is.

Also the line "way too late for calling anyways I guess I'll doze off" I think is repeated because he realizes he must change and be more communicative in his relationship or end up alone and stuck with just his dreams and nightmares forever.

The song ends on my favorite verse, how he would have replayed the incident that haunts him if he had to do again. He saves his most meaningful line for this verse, "As if there's something worse, to have weaned away your worth."
