don't break me down

'cause you're so amusing

i think i'm losing my mind

you think you're so amazing

scintillating

maybe you're just drunk and crazy. everytime i take a breath

and try to say please get up in my face

but not today. had about enough of this shit i can take

i got one request. don't break me down

don't break me down

can't break me down

everyday

you've got to lift up your head. everyday

you've got to lift up your head

and breathe. 'cause you irritate me

a minute feels like an hour. is it the coke or the smoke

that makes you look like such a joke?

everytime i take a breath

and try to say please get up in my face

but not today. had about enough of this shit i can take

i'm trying my best. don't break me down

don't break me down

can't break me down

everyday

you've got to lift up your head. everyday

you've got to lift up your head

and breathe. everyday

you've got to open your eyes. you've got to realize

that you're still alive

alive. don't break me down

don't break me down

don't break me down

don't break me down
