You called me from the trenches dear
Complaining of the atmosphere
Seems no one wants to hear anymore
About your sore, sore…
Parts of you are growing strong
Hardening and moving on
But oh your eyes get so withdrawn
And well, I can tell
You’re so convinced that this is it
You wallow in the thick of it
Swallow whatever you can get
Just tell me now
Are you breaking up or breaking down?
You don’t appreciate my tone
Well I’m fresh out of sugarcoat
I want to help but not to hold
Your hair back as you swear that
This is it
And wallow in the thick of it
Swallow whatever you can get
Just tell me now
Are you breaking up or breaking down?
…for a reason to be lifted?
From this treason you’ve committed
Just when things are going well
Your tender heart will start to swell
Lest anyone forget the belle of this ball
After all
You’re so convinced that this is it
You wallow in the thick of it
Swallow whatever you can get
Just tell me now
Are you breaking up or breaking down?
Are you breaking up or breaking down?
Are you breaking up or breaking down?
Are you breaking up?

“She takes chance after chance on her delightful new album, Mystery Prize…There’s no mystery here, the girl has talent!”
– James Kelly (Creative Loafing, Atlanta)
“Like something familiar that you’ve never heard before…She whittles things down to the bare bones, allowing stark, vivid chord progressions and slow arpeggios to drip through the songs like honey.”
– Johnny Black (High Plains Public Radio, Amarillo TX)
