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 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 a smile, gradually I'm dying inside (underneath the guise of smile)
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 break down and cry
So, what do you do when somebody you're 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"? (Gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
Do you lash out and say, "how dare you leave this way"? (Gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
(Gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away? (Gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
Well, I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it (break-breakdown)
And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you (steady breaking me on down)
But in reality, I'm slowly losing my mind (losing my mind) (break-breakdown)
Underneath the guise of a smile
Gradually I'm dying inside (under the smile) (steady breaking me on down)
Friends ask me how I feel, and I lie convincingly (how do I feel?) (break-breakdown)
'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering (steady breaking me on down)
So, I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night (break-breakdown)
And turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry (steady breaking me on down)
Yeah
Come on, yeah
Come on, come on
I don't wanna break-breakdown (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
I don't wanna break down (breakdown, breakdown)
Steady breaking me on down (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
I don't wanna break down (breakdown, breakdown)
Break-breakdown (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
I don't wanna break down (breakdown, breakdown)
Steady breaking me on down (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
Gonna break you down, only if you let it
Everyday crazy situations rocking my mind
Trying to break me down, but I won't let it, forget it
I be 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
Don't ever wanna feel no pain, pain
Hoping for the sun, but it looks like rain, rain
Lord, I just wanna maintain
Yeah, I'm feeling pressures you all
But nevertheless Krayzie won't fall
It's over, it's ending here
Well, I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it (I'm crying)
And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
But in reality, I'm slowly losing my mind (I'm gradually dying inside)
Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside (in my heart, I'm crying)
Friends ask me how I feel, and I lie convincingly (how do I feel?)
'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering (I'm losing my mind)
So, I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
And turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry (so, I break down and cry)
Well, I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
But in reality, I'm slowly losing my mind (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
Underneath the guise of a smile, gradually I'm dying inside (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
Friends ask me how I feel, and I lie convincingly (how do I feel?) (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering
(What do you think? You gotta know I'm suffering, so I...) (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
So, I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
I turn off the lights and breakdown and cry (gotta get control and roll roll roll on)
Well, I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it (break-breakdown) (cry, cry, cry)
And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you (steady breaking me on down)
But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind (break-breakdown) (cry, cry, cry)
Underneath the guise of a smile, gradually I'm dying inside (steady breaking me on down)
Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly (break-breakdown)
'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering (steady breaking me on down)
So, I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night (break-breakdown)
And turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry (steady breaking me on down)
I don't wanna break down (break-breakdown)
