Breakdown Lyrics

You call yesterday to basically say

That you care for me but you're just not in love

Imediately I pretended to beel similarly

And led you to believe I was OK

to just walk away from the thing

That's unyielding and scared 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 it

But in reality I'm slowly loosing my mind

Underneath the smile gradually I'm dying

Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly

Cause I don't want to reveal that fact that I'm suffering

And turn down all the lights and then 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"

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 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 trun down all the lights and then break down and cry

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 trun down all the lights and then break down and cry
