about

Dependencies lead to repetition of mistakes. After a certain time or number of times, you get the feeling that one more time will break the bank. Just one last fling at it - or never again - and it must work. Make or break is no panacea, quite often a disaster, but sometimes it works.

lyrics

MAKE OR BREAK

He’d been married three times before
And three times she’d walked out the door
He’d lost all, of his confidence
But she number four seemed determined
To make it one more (he said)

Make or break, this is my last fling at it
Make or break, this is all I have to give
Make or break, this is what I need to live
Make or break, this is my last fling

He’d been cracking safes for two decades
Been inside for mistakes he’d made
Retired now, to the front bar
He lost a bet and then gambled again
On the debt (one more time)

Make or break, this is my last fling at it
Make or break, this is all I have to give
Make or break, this is what I need to live
Make or break, this is my last fling

And weren’t we all supposed to learn from life
We were bound to find our one-love wife
We were told to keep our noses clean
But thrills are always lurking, sliding out of dreams

A junkie, for too long to think
He’s hovered on the black-hole brink
He’ll try now, for the tenth time
Withdraw, a cocoon, and recoil from the light
Of the moon (this time it’s)

Make or break, this is my last fling at it
Make or break, this is all I have to give
Make or break, this is what I need to live
Make or break, this is my last fling at it
Make or break, this is all I have to give
Make or break, this is what I need to live
Make or break, this is my last fling
