Breaking Space

Breaking Space ei ole yhdellä kuuntelulla loppuunkulutettavaa kertakäyttötavaraa vaan kunnianhimoinen pop-eepos. Hitaasti käynnistyvä viisiminuuttinen ei ehkä ole kaikkein todennäköisin radiohitti, mutta korvaukseksi se palkitsee kuulijansa syvyydellään. Rakenteellisesti kappale on periaatteessa aika yksinkertainen, lukuunottamatta monia omalaatuisia yksityiskohtia.

Sanat eivät kerro mitään suoraviivaista tarinaa vaan pikemminkin maalaavat ajatusmaisemaa, jonka jokainen voi tulkita omalla tavallaan. Myöskään video ei, ensimmäistä kertaa Snowclonen historiassa, tarjoa valmiita vastauksia. Kappaleen tavoite on luoda tunnelmaa ja herättää ajatuksia.

Every open door is waiting to be closed
Every pointless law you passed has been imposed
Every broken fall has left my scars exposed

I'm lost in breaking space
Where only you can show me the signs
(Read between the lines)
My map is in your face
Encoded with your fatal designs
If I died, would you mind?
Would you stab my heart from behind?
If you knew black and blue shining through

I'm lost in breaking space
Where only you can show me the signs
(Read between the lines)
My map is in your face
Encoded with your fatal designs
If I died, would you mind?
Would you stab my heart from behind?
If you knew black and blue shining through
I'm lost in breaking space
Where only guilt hits harder than disgrace

Every razorblade has cut me to the core
Every game we play just equals out the score
Every spiteful word is aimed at hurting more

I'm lost in breaking space
Where only you can show me the signs
(Read between the lines)
My map is in your face
Encoded with your fatal designs
If I died, would you mind?
Would you stab my heart from behind?
If you knew black and blue shining through
I'm lost in breaking space
Where only guilt hits harder than disgrace

I'm lost in breaking space
Where only you can show me the signs
(Read between the lines)
My map is in your face
Encoded with your fatal designs
If I died, would you mind?
Would you stab my heart from behind?
If you knew black and blue shining through
I'm lost in breaking space
Where only guilt hits harder than disgrace

No ending, no meaning
Just one more day
With moments in fading gray
