Lyrics
Breaking the Victim
Maybe you?re right
Maybe I?ll never find it
All of my illusions are gone
Maybe you?re right
Maybe I had forgotten
Baby, I?m a lot like you
But cannonballs
awaken souls
crashing down
In a cycle
impeding me
still coming back
around and ?round
How long
till I break the victim here
Love keeps spinning
around me in circles
How long
till I break the victim here
Love keeps spinning in circles and circles
Maybe you?re right
Maybe God didn?t do it
Maybe I created it all
Maybe you?re right
Maybe I just imagined
Loving you is what I thought I earned
But cannonballs
awaken souls
crashing down
In a cycle
impeding me
still coming back
around and around
How long
till I break the victim here
Love keeps spinning
around me in circles
How long
Till I break the victim here
Love keeps spinning
in circles and circles
All my dreams
rest safe in me
When I?m lying fast asleep
Brought to life
it cuts like a knife
The heart is surely broken
Well, go tell Mother
she knows
she knows
