Break, break down
Steady breakin' me on down
(Repeat x4)
You called yesterday to basically say
That you care for me but that you're just not in love
Immediately I pretended to be feelin' similarly
And led you to believe I was okay
To just walk away
From the one thing that's unyielding and sacred to me
Chorus:
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 want to reveal the fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise till 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 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?
Chorus
Break down, break down
(Break, break down)
Break down, break down, break down
(Steady breakin' me on down)
(Repeat)

Chorus
(How do I feel
I'm losing my mind
So I, I
Break down and cry
Cry, cry, cry
But in reality I'm
I'm slowly losing my mind
How do I feel
Why do you think you got me suffering
So I
I, I break down and cry
Cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry, cry, cry
Cry, cry)
