Break it down again So those are my dreams And these are my eyes

Stand tall like a man Head strong like a horse When it's all mixed up
C C Am
C C
Better break it down In the world of secrets In the world of sound
F G7
It's in the way you're always hiding from the light
Am G/B
See for yourself you have been sitting on a time bomb
F G7
No revolution maybe someone somewhere else
Am G/B
Could show you something new about you and your inner song
F G7
And all the love and all the love in the world

I want to break it down (break it down again)
