Breakdown

Break break down, steady breakin' me on down

Break break down, steady breakin' me on down

Break break down, steady breakin' me on down

Break break down, steady breakin' me on down

You called yesterday to basically say

That you care for me but that you're just not in love

Immediately I pretended to be feeling similarly

And led you to believe I was okay to just walk away from the

One thing that's unyielding and sacred to me

Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it

And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you

But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind

Underneath the guise of smile gradually I'm dying inside

Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly

'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering

So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night

And turn down all the lights and then I breakdown and cry

So what do you do when somebody you're so devoted to

Suddenly just stops loving you and it seems they haven't got a clue

Of the pain that rejection is putting you through

Do you cling to your pride and sing "I will survive"?

Do you lash out and say how dare you leave this way?

Do you hold in vain as they just slip away?

Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it

And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you

But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind

Underneath the guise of smile gradually I'm dying inside

Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly

'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering

So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night

And turn down all the lights and then I breakdown and cry

Break break down, steady breakin' me on down

Break break down, steady breakin' me on down

It'll break ya down, only if you let it

Everday crazy situation's rockin' my mind

Tryin' to break me down but I won't let it, forget it

I been feelin' like you breakin' me down

Kickin' me 'round, stressin' me out

I think I better go and get out and let me relieve some stress

Don't ever wanna feel no pain, hopin' for the sun but it looks like rain

Lord, I just will not maintain, yeah, often feel the pressures ya' all

But never the less crazy won't fall, it's over, it's endin' here

Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it

And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you

But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind

Underneath the guise of smile gradually I'm dying inside

Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly

'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering

So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night

And turn down all the lights and then I breakdown and cry

Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it

And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you

But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind

Underneath the guise of smile gradually I'm dying inside

Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly

'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering

So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night

Turn down all the lights and then I breakdown and cry

Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it

And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you

But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
