Guns N' Roses — Breakdown

[Verse 1] We all come in from the cold, we come down from the wire An' everybody warms themselves to a different fire An' sometimes we get burned, you'd think sometime we'd learn The one you love is the one that should take you higher You ain't got no one, you better go back out and find her [Verse 2] Just like children hidin' in a closet, can't tell what's goin' on outside Sometimes, we're so far off the beaten track, we get taken for a ride By a parlor trick, or some words of wit, a hidden hand up a sleeve To think the one you love could hurt you now is a little hard to believe But everybody, darlin', sometimes bites the hand that feeds [Verse 3] When I look around an' everybody always brings me down Well, is it them or me? Well, I just can't see but there ain't no peace to found But if someone really cared, well, they'd take the time to spare A moment to try and understand another one's despair Remember, in this game we call life, that no one said it's fair [Chorus] Breakdown (Let me hear it now) Breakdown (Let me hear it now, yeah) Breakdown (Let me hear it now) [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] I've come to know the cold, I think of it as home When there ain't enough of me to go around, I'd rather be left alone But if I call you out of habit, I'm out of love and I gotta have it Would you give it to me if I fit your needs? Like when we both knew we had it Now, the damage's done and we're back out on the run Funny how everything was roses when we held on to the guns Just because you're winnin' don't mean you're the lucky one [Chorus] Breakdown (Let me hear it now) Breakdown (Yeah) Breakdown (Let me hear it now) [Guitar Solo] There goes the Challenger, bein' chased by the blue, blue meanies on wheels The vicious traffic squad cars are after our lone driver The last American hero, the-the electric sintar The demi-god, the super driver of the golden west Two nasty Nazi cars are close behind the beautiful, lone driver The police cars are getting closer, closer Closer to our soul hero in his soul mobile Yeah, baby, they about to strike They gonna get him, smash, rape The last beautiful free soul on this planet [Outro] But it is written If the evil spirit arms the tiger with claws Brahman provided wings for the dove Thus spake the super guru D'you hear that?
