Breakdown
 
  Verse 1
You called yesterday to basically say
That you care for me but that you’re just not in love
Immediately I pretended to feel similarly
And led you to believe I was o.k.
To just walk away from the thing
That’s unyielding and scared to me

Chorus 1
Well I guess I’m trying to be nonchalant about it
And I’m going the extremes to prove I’m fine without you
But in reality I’m slowly loosing my 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 that fact that I’m suffering
So I wear my disguise ’til I go home at night
And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry

Verse 2
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’
Do you lash out and say: ’how dare you leave this way’
Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away

Chorus 2
Well I guess I’m trying to be nonchalant about it
And I’m going the extremes to prove I’m fine without you
But in reality I’m slowly loosing my 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 that fact that I’m suffering
So I wear my disguise ’til I go home at night
And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry

Bone thugs:
It’s gonna break ya down down down
Everyday situations breakin’ my mind
Tryin to break me down
But I won’t let it, forget it
Yeah the situation’s gettin me down, stressin’ me out
Oh God won’t ya let me get out and let me
Relieve some stress
Don’t ever wanna feel no pain, pain
Hopin’ for the sun but it looks like rain
Lord I just wanna maintain
I feel the pressures yo
But nevertheless crazy won’t fall
Its over, endin here

Chorus 3
Well I guess I’m trying to be nonchalant about it
And I’m going the extremes to prove I’m fine without you
But in reality I’m slowly loosing my 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 that fact that I’m suffering
So I wear my disguise ’til I go home at night
And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry
