'sudden breakdown'

i'm tired so I guess I have to keep it short for tonight. I changed my blog song from ESTK to Anberlin. I was studying just now and out of the blue I got the urge to listen to it. Aidil, its another great song from anberlin! It can rival paperthin hymn in my opinion but of course, paperthin hymn is better. its a sad song also, so its good.

One last glance from a taxi cab
Images scar my mind
Four weeks felt like years
Since your full attention was all mine
The night was young and so were we
Talked about life, God, death, and your family
Didn't want any promises,
Just my undivided honesty, and you said

"Oh oh, things are gonna change now for the better"
"Oh oh, things are gonna change, oh, they're gonna change"

I am the patron saint of lost causes
A fraction of who I once believed (change)
only a matter of time
Opinions I would try and rewrite
If life had background music playing your song
I've got to be honest, I tried to escape you
But the orchestra plays on, and they sang

"Oh oh, things are gonna change now for the better"
"Oh oh, things are gonna change"

[Chorus 2x]
Hands, like secrets, are the hardest thing to keep from you
Lines and phrases, like knives, your words can cut me through
Dismantle me down (repair)
You've dismantled me
You've dismantled me

Give me time to prove
Prove I want the rest of yours (prelude)
Call this a prelude to a lifetime of you
It's not that I hang on every word
I hang myself on what you repeat
It's not that I keep hanging on
I'm never letting go

Hands, like secrets, are the hardest thing to keep from you
Lines and phrases, like knives, your words can cut me through
Dismantle me down (repair)
You've dismantled me
You've dismantled me



It's hard to ignore our emotions, no matter how many times we try because the only thing we'll ever succeed is delaying it. there's no such thing as being immune to it. It will hit us like a train-wreck eventually, just like it hit me just now. Dismantle me down... repair.
