Breakdown Lyrics

Artist: Carey Mariah
Album: Butterfly

featuring Krayzie Bone Wish Bone

krayzie: break break down still it bring me on down break break down still
it bring me on down break break down still it bring me on down break break
down still it bring me on down.

mariah: you called yesterday to basicallly say
that you care for me but that you're just not in love
immediately i pretended to be feeling similarily
and led you to believe i was o.k
to just walk away from the one thing
that's unyielding and sacred to me

chorus: well i guess i'm trying not to be nonchalant about it
and i'm 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
cuz i don't want to reveal the fact that i'm suffering
so i wear my disguise til i go home at night
and i turn down the lights and then i break down and cry

mariah: so waht 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"
(gotta get control, hold, hold, hold on) 4X
do you hold on in vain as they as they just slip away

wish: yeah, c' mon, yeah, c' mon, c' mon

chorus

wish: better break it down
or if for your lady
everday the situation is on my mind
tryin to break me down
but i won't let it
forget it ( forget it)

krayzie: 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 ( stress )

wish: don't ever wanna feel no pain ( pain )
hoping for the sun
but it looks like rain ( rain, rain, rain )
o, i just wanna maintain

krayzie: yeah, i'm feelin prescious, yo
but never the less
krayzie won't fall
so-ber, is headin near ( near )

chorus ( break break down until fade )
