Break It All is a song about going through a challenge and feeling like you have reached the limit of your strength. Can I keep going? Can I endure any more? Will I overcome the struggle or will the struggle break me?
We have both felt this during the past season of our lives, and these are the questions that we asked. Struggle leads to doubt, doubt to crisis, crisis to perseverance, perseverance to strength. We are faced with the choice to break it all, or to keep going.

I gotta stop it
You know I gotta stop it
I gotta stop it now
I gotta stop it
You know I tried to stop it
I gotta stop it now

Don’t know how much I can take this
Don’t know if I’m going to make it
Don’t know if I’m going to break it all (2x)

I almost see it
You know I’ve always seen it
I can almost see it now
I almost see it
You know I’ve always seen it
I can almost see it now

Don’t know how much I can take this
Don’t know if I’m going to make it
Don’t know if I’m going to break it all
Oh whoa
Don’t know how much I can take this

Don’t know if I’m going to break it all

Oh whoa

Don’t know how much I can take this
Don’t know if I’m going to make it

Don’t know how much I can take this
Don’t know if I’m going to make it
Don’t know if I’m going to break it all
REFRAIN
I don’t know if I can take it anymore

These songs are essentially about struggle - both inward and outward. And like fault lines, these struggles can create or destroy. (indie folk / singer-songwriter) The Woodlands
Cataloging lyrics and sounds like lines of latitude and longitude. Songs of sojourn. Songs of shipwreck. Songs of new continents edged by the tide of the human sea. (indie folk / singer-songwriter) The Woodlands
