lyrics

BREAKERS – Words and Music by Ben Kunder

It’s the secret of mind power to see only the shadows of myself,
There’s a whole lot of people dreaming tonight,
Trying to find a way out,

What did you sacrifice to pursue your dreams?
Did you know what you were losing?
Did you think your hands were clean?
Did you think your hands were clean?

Can we become?
Or will we surrender like breakers in the night?
Are we becoming?

It’s the afternoon sun breaking through the window,
Can you measure the weather like you measure your soul?

I’ve got the worried man blues,
Waiting for a midnight kiss,
I’ve got the little brown jug,
This is how it always is,
This is how it always is,

Can we become?
Or will we surrender like breakers in the night?
Can we become?
Do you remember what it means to fight?
Are we becoming?
Are we becoming?

I thought I’d seen it all but I was standing in one spot for too long,
Solid ground for you to stand on is gone,
My body changes, the earth it changes, I’m not the same and I won’t be again,
Is it the wind or am I blowing off steam?
We change in time, we light the lights and power goes off in the night,
Reach into the dark and find your light, find your light,

Can we become?
Or will we surrender like breakers in the night?
Can we become? Can we become?
Can we become?
Or will we surrender like breakers in the night?
Can we become?
Do you remember what it means to fight?
Are we becoming?
Are we becoming?
