Breaking Down

You built me up, put me on this stand,

You knocked me back down,

This is where I land,

In this sea of green,

And fields of blue,

Upside down is upright for you.

And you smile as I cry,

And you live as I die.

Don't you see I'm just breaking down?

You gave me all the wings I needed,

To fly to this throne where I am seated,

But now when I look to my right,

The King has run into the night,

Alone.

A fake.

With a plastic crown of thorn.

And you smile as I cry,

And you live as I die.

Don't you see I'm just breaking down?
