lyrics

Breaking Out (O’Farrell / MacClancy)

Together as we lie.
the windows kiss a black night sky.
You ask me who am I.
and I make a sad reply.

Then you told me of your friend who found his brother headless
with a shotgun still smoking in his arms.
His mother never thought he’d come to any harm.

So slowly as I die
you can look into my eyes
and see the cold March sky

Breaking out, Breaking out
I’m reaching out, and kicking down.

Cars roll by with their windows closed
the city stands and watches them pass
Like a whore waiting for them to stop and ask
how much for a fuck without the mask?

So slowly as I die
you can look into my eyes
and see the cold March sky

Breaking out, Breaking out
I’m reaching out, and kicking down

Breaking out, Breaking out
I’m reaching out, and kicking down

There’s a corridor with paintings
where every face is framed
I have taken you to walk there
you know communion’s found in shame

Together as we lie.
the windows kiss a black night sky.
You ask me who am I.
and I make a sad reply.

Breaking out, Breaking out
I’m reaching out, and kicking down
