Breakdown Songtext
von Ken Saydak

Time is my keeper, time holds the key
The key to this heartache that′s shackling me
But there is no pardon, there's no governor′s call
No one to catch me, so I'm just taking the fall

Emotional shakedown right down to the bone
I'm having a breakdown on my way home

I keep getting better at all those things that I do
The years keep on rolling, I just keep rolling too
But I got a notion that if I swallow my pride
I could measure my motion in just the tears that I cried

I′m poised for the takedown as I wrestle alone
I′m having a breakdown on my way home


My daddy told me, "Son, the news isn't new
They′ve always been doing all the things that we do"
But I take no comfort in those words daddy said
'Cause I still have to travel the road up ahead

I don′t mean to say that I'm traveling alone
But you know I′m gonna break down before we get home

Time is my keeper, time holds the key
The key to this heartache that's always been shackling me
But there is no pardon, there's no last-minute governor′s call
No one to save me, I′m taking the fall

I'm poised for the takedown as I wrestle alone
I′m having a breakdown on my way home
It's emotional shakedown right down to the bone
I′m having a breakdown on my way home
On my way home, on my way home
Trying to find my way back home, I'm going home
It′s emotional shakedown right down to the bone
I'm having a breakdown on my way home
