Breakthrough Lyrics by Richard Wright

Broken China

1996

[Verse 1]
I can take or leave it, won't be the woebegone
Don't need a model universe to hang your pictures on
You hide somewhere, you die somewhere
And then this senseless thought
By hating more, you're feeling more
And that's how you get caught

[Chorus]
They're never gonna make it easy
Of this you can be sure
I greet you from your wilderness
I'll stay inside your door

[Verse 2]
There is no cage or prison
They have no fence too tall
You die more times than anyone
There's still no place to fall

[Chorus]
They're never gonna keep it simple
This comes down from above
I have no helm, no secret realm
I dream to be at the heart of love, a part of love

[Verse 3]
I bet you can conceal it, but that's just a dead-end track
I'll cover you like the driven snow, then I'll bring you back
You'll see, you feel like, you feel like a banner
Unfurled and gently blown
And there before your opening eyes
The self you've never known

[Chorus]
They're never going to make it easy
Of this you can be sure
You feel untied, beatified
And loved forevermore
