Build Me Up, Break Me Down Lyrics - Dream Theater
Today I will be a saviour
Tomorrow a demon
You crave my eratic behaviour
And watch my every move
Obsession at all costs
You'll be the death of me
Broken and torn apart
Why can't you let me be?
You build me up
You break me down
Until I'm falling to pieces
I crash and burn
I never learn
I'm your guilty addiction
Build me up
Break me down
Today
Saviour
Tonight I am the new messiah
You dare defy
When I'm no longer desired
I'll be crucified
The one who's free from sin
The first to cast the stone
Fighting the fear within
I won't be left alone
You build me up
You break me down
Until I'm falling to pieces
The price I pay
To live this way
And the fantasy stays alive
I can't live up
I can't let down
And leave you falling to pieces
I crash and burn
I never learn
I'm your morbid obsession
Build me up
Break me down
I will be a saviour
You build me up
You break me down
Until I'm falling to pieces
The price I pay
To live this way
And the fantasy stays alive
I can't live up
I can't let down
And leave you falling to pieces
I crash and burn
I never learn
Your iconic fixation
Build me up
Break me down
Build me up
Break me down
Tomorrow a demon
You crave my eratic behaviour
And watch my every move
Obsession at all costs
You'll be the death of me
Broken and torn apart
Why can't you let me be?
You build me up
You break me down
Until I'm falling to pieces
I crash and burn
I never learn
I'm your guilty addiction
Build me up
Break me down
Today
Saviour
Tonight I am the new messiah
You dare defy
When I'm no longer desired
I'll be crucified
The one who's free from sin
The first to cast the stone
Fighting the fear within
I won't be left alone
You build me up
You break me down
Until I'm falling to pieces
The price I pay
To live this way
And the fantasy stays alive
I can't live up
I can't let down
And leave you falling to pieces
I crash and burn
I never learn
I'm your morbid obsession
Build me up
Break me down
I will be a saviour
You build me up
You break me down
Until I'm falling to pieces
The price I pay
To live this way
And the fantasy stays alive
I can't live up
I can't let down
And leave you falling to pieces
I crash and burn
I never learn
Your iconic fixation
Build me up
Break me down
Build me up
Break me down
