The Legendary Pink Dots Break day Lyrics:
The slogans turned to secrets. The symbols turned
to stains. The face of an 'enemy' was imprinted on
our brains. Made us spectres at the shutters,
faces covered, taking aim, faking blame. Breakday

things, the fact remains, we never tried. Breakday
(The breaks failed - breaking down together). But
YOU had a chance. You had the brains, you had the
money - could have bought an aeroplane and skipped
this hole for somewhere sunny. You recognised the
symptoms, smelt the hatred in the air. But you
stayed... You better pray. A nurse hid and
shivered as an army axed her door. Linking arms,
drinking orders, unrinating on the floor. Spilt
the milk, split a hymen - took her wicked, made
her sore... Told her it was Breakday.
