Nicky Wire - Break My Heart Slowly lyrics

rate me

"It’s scary to watch someone you love go into the centre of himself and confront his fears...

Fear of failure, fear of death, fear of going insane

You have to fail a little, die a little, go insane a little to come out the other side."

Break my heart slowly

Dora Maar said to me

She came to me in a dream

Reaching out for luck with fear

She said:

"Hold on, hold on, hold on to your gun"

It was cold, the night was black

You could feel her freezing hands

Exiting a life of chance

Painted dead a million times

She said:

"Hold on, hold on, hold on to your gun"

If your life has changed

If it makes no sense

You can carry on

If you still belong

If your life has changed

If it makes no sense

You can carry on

If you still belong

C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon

Break my heart slowly

Break my heart slowly

So c’mon now, c’mon now

So c’mon, c’mon, c’mon

So c’mon now, c’mon now

So c’mon, c’mon, c’mon
