Mariah Carey con Krayzie Bone & Wish Bone
 Breakdown (Album Version) -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Letra // Mariah Carey, A. Henderson, C. Scruggs


Break, breakdown
Steady breaking me on down
Break, breakdown
Steady breaking 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
O.K. to just
Walk away from the
One thing that’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 that I’m suffering
So I wear my disguise ‘till I go home at night
And turn down all the lights
And then 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 (oh baby...)
Slowly losing my mind (losing my mind)
Underneath the guise of a smile
Gradually I’m dying inside (I’m dying...)
Friends ask me how I feel (how could it be...)
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 turn down all the lights
and then I break down and cry (and cry...)

Yeah, c’mon, yeah
C’mon, c’mon
I don’t wanna break down
Better get control (breakdown, breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown
Better get control (breakdown, breakdown)
Breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown

It’ll break you down
Only if you let it
Everyday crucial situation wrackin’ my mind
Tryin’ to break me down but I won’t let it
Forget it, forget it

I’ve been feelin’ like you’re breakin’ me down
Kicking me around, stressing me out
I think I better go and get out and let me
Release some stress, 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, well I feel the pressure’s on
But nevertheless Krayzie won’t fall it’s over
It's ending here, here

(Well I guess I’m trying to be)
Oh break it... (to prove I'm fine without you)
(But in reality I'm)Oh, imagine I’m dying inside and I just cry...
(Gradually I'm dying inside)
How do I feel...
I’m losing my mind
Oh... (so I wear my disguise 'till I go home at night)
But, but I break down and cry...

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...
I’m slowly losing my mind... (gradually I'm dying inside)
(Friends ask me how I feel)
How do I feel...
What do you think you’ve got I’m still suffering
So I... (so I wear my disguise 'till I go home at night)
I turn down the lights and break down and cry

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 that I’m suffering
So I wear my disguise ‘till I go home at night
And turn down all the lights
And then I break down and cry
