Lissie
The Breaker
Break my bow, take my arrow
Sow your oats, leave me fallow
Saboteur, wrecked mirror image
You are my rose, I take what is given

I had a dream that I was an archer
And tumbling on green silky roads
Like a queen, I gave you my pardon
Go on, go on

Will I be the breaker or the broken?
Taker or the taken?
When I meet my maker, I'll ask him
The hunter or the hunted?
I can tell you one thing
I'd rather be broken than hurt you

Cut my hair, take my gold
And you be fair, i'll be worn
You the pure and tainted image
You are my ghost, I carry you around

I had a dream that I was a warrior
And topaz gleamed on onyx and pearl
I could not bring myself to destroy you
Go on, go on
Will I be the breaker or the broken?
Taker or the taken?
When I meet my maker, I'll ask him
Hunter or the hunted?
I can tell you one thing
I'd rather have my heart broken than hurt you

Oh, this tide it's open teeming the binding in your plan
Oh, beneath your tent you hold me, hold onto me heartache
Hey

Will I be the breaker or the broken?
Taker or the taken?
When I meet my maker, I'll ask him
Hunter or the hunted?
I can tell you one thing
I'd rather be broken than hurt you

Hurt you, damn
You'll go on
You'll go on
You'll go on

Take my bow, take my arrow
