Mariah Carey Breakdown Lyrics

Breakdown lyrics

You call yesterday to basically say
That you care for me but you're just not in love
Immediatly I pretended to be feeling l 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
