Black Gold

Your hands are shaking now*
 You're short of breath
 You got to get away
 And start again
 And someone said
 "You are having a breakdown"
 And don't you know that
 You are best for the fall.
 [Pre-Chorus:]
 I'm telling you that this is going to be your tragic time.
 Stuck up in your private hand.
 And best to do in this tragic world
 And girl don't you make me watch you cry
 You're going mental
 And I'm feeling that you let go
 'Cause they said she said I said that you know.
 [Chorus:]
 You're having a breakdown!
 You're having a breakdown!
 And all things you ask in your prayers
 Are falling away now.
 I can't fall asleep
 I'm talking fast
 Standing side by side
 So close to me
 And someone said
 "You are sleeping away now."
 And don't you know that
 You, you placed yourself on that fall
 [Repeat Pre-Chorus:]
 [Repeat Chorus:]
 You know that you're trying to get somewhere
 When you're feeling like its all too much to bare.
 You know you got to watch your step
 Take a minute girl, catch your breath.
