Breakdown Lyrics

Breakdown lyrics

You called yesterday, to basically say
That you cared for me but, that you just weren't in love.
Immediately I pretended to be feeling similarlyAnd led you to believe I was
OK,To just walk away from the one thingThat'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 want to reveal the fact I'm suffereing
So I wear my disguise, till I go home at night
And turn down all the lights and 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
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 I'm suffereing
So I wear my disguise, till I go home at night
And turn down all the lights and I break down and cry.
