Breakdown

By Andrew Ripp

If you're washed up on a lonesome shore
Soul crushed and tired
If you're curled up on the kitchen floor
And the house is on fire

And if you couldn't feel further from redemption
You're the closest you've ever been
Rock bottom is a firm foundation
You'll see, my friend

This is not a breakdown
It's a breakthrough
This is not a midnight
It's a brand new morning
When it dawns on the dark
This is not the moment
When it all falls apart
It's a beautiful place to start

You'll find yourself thanking the storm
Cuz the floodgates have opened
You'll let go of standing on the edge
For what the future is holding

Hear your prayers turn from begging God
To praising Him
As you're finding He's always been
Much closer than air you're breathing
Breathe in, my friend

This is not a breakdown
It's a breakthrough
This is not a midnight
It's a brand new morning
When it dawns on the dark
This is not the moment
When it all falls apart
It's a beautiful place to start

The hardest part is the letting go
Sometimes it feels impossible
But there's still love in your arsenal
If there's still blood in your heart
The hardest part is the letting go
Sometimes it feels impossible
But there's still love in your arsenal
If there's still blood in your heart

You'll see, my friend

This is not a breakdown
It's a breakthrough
This is not a midnight
It's a brand new morning
When it dawns on the dark
This is not the moment
When it all falls apart
It's a beautiful place to start...

This part of the lyrics get me every time:

"If you're curled up on the kitchen floor

And the house is on fire"

(I wasn't actually curled up on the kitchen floor but I know the feeling that is being expressed here.)
