Long Breakdown

Oingo Boingo


Everywhere . . . everywhere, there is something to believe in 
Everyone, and his brother, has a massage for me somewhere 
I believe . . . in the cry of little children 
There's a thorn in my side, that makes me want to free them 
There's a cry there's a cry . . . cry off in the distance 
Of a long, long, long breakdown . . . 

There's a light in the tower, there to guide us through 
The long night 
Through the long night when we're dreaming 
Under blankets of deception 
In the darkness, undercover we may bump into each other 
In the darkness, undercover, looking for a new direction 
We may wander, we may wander in geometric patterns 
In a long, long, long, long, breakdown . . . 

Underwater, underwater, I will meet you underwater 
I will find you, I will find you, in the deep & quiet water 
In the ocean, in the ocean, we will bask in all its glory 
In the peaceful quiet water, I will tell you all a story 
Of a long, long, long, long, breakdown
