Break You Lyrics – Trash Boat

Compare my joy to death
Falling every challenge sent
There we go
Here we go again
Again again again

30 years of walking tall
So seconds to waste
No pride, only the fall
Give me relief or give me nothing give me
Nothing at all

I wanna break the silence
I wanna hear the sound
Wanna break a cycle
I wanna break you down
I wanna break the silence
Let’s make it loud
I wanna break a cycle
I wanna break you down

I wanna break you
I wanna break you down

Lost my mind
I just wanna die
Everything inside is against me
Sink so low
Nowhere for us to go
Instinct to fight all
I know, here we go

Here we go again
Compare my joy to death

I wanna break the silence
I wanna hear the sound
Wanna break a cycle
I wanna break you down
I wanna break the silence
Let’s make it loud
I wanna break a cycle
I wanna break you
