Michael W. Smith - Breakdown Lyrics

Wasn't it long ago Wasn't it on a New England coast Wasn't it the standard-people praying to The Son and the Father and the Holy Ghost One nation over God Is that what we've now become? The founding fathers left a noble legacy To their sons and their daughters To their sons and their daughters Look at what we've done Look at what we've done

Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown As we learn to bite the hand That tries to feed us Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown If we say taht we are free Who will believe us If we breakdown, breakdown, breakdown Breakdown, break

See the powder on the glass See the pillow on the street See the charter of a modern love With no obligations...or promises to meet

Hear the fear of disease Hear the baby never born Hear a people crying out "Somebody save us-oh, please somebody save us From what we're headed for-from what we're headed for"

Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown As we learn to bite the hand That tries to feed us Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
