Break It Down Again

Biography:

Tears for Fears, named after a phrase found in Arthur Janov's book Prisoners of Pain, is a British pop/rock outfit formed in 1981 in Bath, England. Founder members Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith had been friends since their early teens and had already been in the shortlived ska band Graduate. Initially associated with the new wave and synthesiser bands of the early 1980s, Tears For Fears' earlier work, as evidenced on their 1983 debut album The Hurting , was explicitly based around the emotional angst of adolescence.

Better break it down In the world of secrets In the world of sound

It's in the way you're always hiding from the light

See for yourself you have been sitting on a time bomb

No revolution maybe someone somewhere else

I want to break it down (break it down again)
