Breakdown

(专辑： Butterfly - 1997)

Break, break down, steady breaking me on down
Break, break down, steady breaking me on down
Break, break down, steady breaking me on down
Break, break down, steady breaking 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 O.K
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 a smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
'Cause I don't wanna reveal the fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
Then turn down all the lights and then I break down 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 on 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
(Losing my mind, losing my mind)
Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel
(How dare you leave?)
And I lie convincingly
'Cause I don't wanna reveal the fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
Then turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry
I'm gonna breakdown

Yeah, c'mon
Yeah, c'mon, c'mon
Break break down
Gotta get control
Roll roll roll along
Steady breaking me on down
Roll roll roll along
Break break down
Gotta get control
Roll roll roll along
Steady breaking me on down
Roll roll along

It'll break you down
Only if you let it
Every day crazy situation's rocking my mind
Trying to break me down
But I won't let it
Forget it
Forget it

I've been feeling like you're breaking me down
Kicking me around
Stressing me out
I think you better go and get out and let me
Release some stress (stress)

Don't ever wanna feel no pain (pain)
Hoping for the sun
But it looks like rain (rain, rain, rain)
Oh, I just wanna maintain

Yeah, I'm feeling pressures you all
But nevertheless
Krayzie won't fall
It's over
It's ending here, 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
(Slowing dying inside in my heart, just cry)
Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel
(How do I feel?)
And I lie convincingly
(I'm losing my mind!)
'Cause I don't wanna 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 break down 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 a smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel
(How I feel)
And I lie convincingly
'Cause I don't wanna reveal the fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
Then turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry

Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it
(Cry, cry, cry)
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 a smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
(How do I feel?! What do you think?
You gotta know I'm suffering)
'Cause I don't wanna 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 break down and cry

Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it
(Cry, cry, cry)
And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
(Cry, cry, cry, cry)
Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
(Cry, cry, cry, cry)
'Cause I don't wanna reveal the fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
(Cry, cry)
Then turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry
