Breakdown (Remix) [feat. Mariah Carey]

Break, break down, steady breakin' me on down
 Break, break down, steady breakin' me on down
 Break, break down, steady breakin' me on down
 Break, break down, steady breakin' 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 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 'til I go home at night
 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 to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
 But in reality I'm slowly losing 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 the fact that I'm suffering
 So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
 And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry
 Yeah, c'mon
 Yeah, c'mon, c'mon
 Break break down
 Gotta get control
 Roll roll roll along
 Steady breakin' me on down
 Roll roll roll along
 Break break down (Gotta get control)
 Roll roll roll along
 Steady breakin' me on down
 Roll roll along
 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
 Kickin' me around
 Stressin' 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, when you feel the pressure's on
 But nevertheless
 Krayzie won't fall
 It's over
 It's endin' here, here
 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 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 'til I go home at night
 And turn 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 to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
 But in reality I'm slowly losing 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 the fact that I'm suffering
 So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
 And turn 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 to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
 But in reality I'm slowly losing 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 the fact that I'm suffering
 So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
 And turn down all the lights and then break down and cry
