breakdown, breakdown
i’m gonna leave you, baby
so far behind
’cause you’re upset and twisted
are you out of your mind
and you know i don’t love you
and we’re wasting our time
come on, give me a reason
help me make up my mind
there are cold days in this winter
but it’s not by my design
i’m a victim of your misfortune
in a terminal decline

i’m gonna leave you, baby
so far behind
’cause you’re fucked up and twisted
and you’re out of your mind
and you know i don’t love you
and we’re wasting our time
come on, give me a reason
help me make up my mind
i don’t know what lies in the future
i don’t know how long it will last
you could lose yourself in the task
my heart is on fire but it’s burning low
i can’t get much higher
there’s nowhere to go

the dry, desultory breakdown is the only electronic song that could be described as filler; it’s too undistinguished to add much to the twisted tenderness album, with tracks like make it happen, when she’s gone and the title track offering far more originality. at least its tempo and jagged guitars maintain the mood of twisted tenderness rather than detract from it.
