Breakdown de Mariah Carey

Break, break down
Steady breakin me on down
Break, break down
Steady breakin me on down (Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm)

Break, break down (Mmm mmm)
Steady breakin me on down (Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm)
Break, break down (Na na na na)
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 not 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 till I go home at night
And I turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry

So what do you do when somebody 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 as they just slip away

Well, I guess I m trying not 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 till I go home at night
And I turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry

Break, break, break down
Roll, roll, roll on

Break, break down
Steady breakin me on down
Break, break down
Steady breakin me on down

Better break it down only if you let it
Everyday the situation is rockin my mind
Tryin to break me down, but I won t let it
Forget it, forget it

I ll be feelin like it gonna break me down
Turnin me around, stressin me out
I m thinkin it gonna 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, rain, rain
Oh, I just wanna maintain

Yeah, I m feelin precious, yo
But never the less Krayzie won t fall
Sober is headin near, near

Well, I guess I m trying not 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 till I go home at night
And I turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry

Well, I guess I m trying not 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 till I go home at night
And I turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry

Well, guess I m trying not 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 till I go home at night
And I turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry

Break, break down
Steady breakin me on down
