[Verse 1]
And now the storm subsided,
No more battle cries,
Everything in its place,
Or nearby.

[Verse 2]
And as I turn into sane,
Then you have become mad,
I plan to build with my hands,
So I can touch it.

[Chorus]
Love breaks down, yeah,
Won’t make a sound, yeah,
It won’t be here when you awaken.
When love breaks down, yeah,
You ain’t around, yeah,
It gave you time enough to take it.

[Verse 3]
You were willin’ to lose,
And I was faking to win,
A tooth for a tooth,
That is just how it has been.

[Verse 4]
What you put it our affair,
It’s coming back you see,
If you let it be said,
You let it be.

[Chorus]
When love breaks down, yeah,
Don’t make a sound, yeah,
It fades away until you see it,
When love breaks down, yeah,
Don’t fuck around, yeah,
It gave you time enough to give it.

[Outro]
Now there is nothing more to say,
Nothing sounds better anyway,
This isn’t what it’s built for,
Best stop,
Before . . .
It breaks down, yeah,
Just when you found it, yeah,
