Break My Heart Slowly Lyrics by Nicky Wire

I Killed the Zeitgeist

2006

"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
