Breakdown is a 1997 American thriller film, written and directed by Jonathan Mostow. The film stars Kurt Russell, J. T. Walsh and Kathleen Quinlan. The original music score was composed by Basil Poledouris. The film was produced by PolyGram Filmed Entertainment and released on May 2, 1997 by Paramount Pictures and Gramercy Pictures.
While driving cross-country from Boston to San Diego in their new 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, Jeff Taylor (Kurt Russell) and his wife Amy (Kathleen Quinlan) narrowly miss colliding with a beat-up pickup truck that darts in front of them from an intersecting road on a deserted highway. Later, while stopped at a gas station, the truck's driver, Earl, exchanges hostile words with Jeff before the couple resume their journey. Shortly afterwards, their Jeep breaks down in the middle of the desert. Leaving Jeff with the car, Amy accepts a ride from a passing big-rig trucker named Red Barr (J.T. Walsh) to get to a nearby diner and call for help. Jeff eventually discovers that the Jeep's battery connections have been suspiciously tampered with, and, after reconnecting them, drives to the diner, only to find no one there has seen his wife. When he catches up with Barr on the road and forces him to stop, the trucker claims he has never seen Jeff or his wife before. Jeff hails a passing sheriff, named Boyd, but a search of Barr's truck yields nothing, and he is let go.

Aaaaaaahhhh yea yea ahhhhh
I don't even know why I'm doing this song
I don't even know how I feel anymore........ god damn it
I can't count how many times I been the last one laughing
The joke is on me, cause see I keep crashing
My life is changing, really weird being here and there
But airplane flights and fighting long distance late nights
Doing double duty to a girl id love to live for
Thinking for ever, last alot, last long then I had planned on
Immortal is love, life isn't just a nice portal we go leaping through
I dig through dumpsters and rifle through the scraps
My spirit is starving, I am sad
I just wanted to walk my thoughts off and drink a cup of coffee
It seems like I can't sleep anyway, what am I doing here
My intentions span a mans attention, they pay me no mind
For I am the mother of invention
They say an ounce of pervention is worth a pound of cure
But I'm sure my intentions werent pure
In fact they acted so brazin
That's what forced me to leave this safe haven
And now I'm out in the storm having cut off my escape route
I slid through the some mud in a make shift rain suit
I was soaking wet and drug myself up from the bottom
I was shocked by cupids rock, I chased him down until I caught him
Grabbed the gimpy infant diaper rash
He used to quiver quickly to load love and unload until I started to feel sickly
I was head over high heels in love with my wheels in my girlie
The road came calling but she left early, now I'm falling into early thought
I can't stop thinking I just hope I don't get caught
[faint singing] aaaaaahhhhhh, I break everything
So I broke it off, because I break everything
Fall out of love is an abstract art
I know I don't support your dreams
But I don't mean to be so selfish
I'm just overwhelmed by currents of assurance
still I'm helpless and hoping
someone else will help this coping
to be open is an art form, I'm feeling closed in
mostly a part from where we came from is part of whos to blame
there really nothing nobody can do to ease this pain
I'm feeling freezed in rain drops spread across the roof tops
I'm hiding undercover until the truth stops leaking
With loose lips peaking, gossip starts speaking in toungues
There's not a decent soul among them young ones
Who just gathered in rapture to pay hommage
To the capture of the master
We made ship to shore communication
You are my first true love but ive lost patience
With the endless way we let inpendence way of tendancy
To say I need more space, so please go away
Later on the change is on the otherside, let it slide
Better be hiding the good vibe that I am feeling
When not stealing light from your likeness but
Like it or not, you let the first shot go
And invited the first thoughts of might we be so tired
As to be beyond the first aid our state required
doo doo do do doo do doo do doo doo doo do [repeat]
Man...
You can't bandage neglected efforts or put band aids on baskets
No longer filled with love and now employed as caskets
Yes the love is dead, no the love remains
Nothing sings the soul as much of what the whole contains
When dumped down on this ground below
Spread slow at first but then emerced the town in its undertow
We can't grow in salt water cried the pretty girls
Neither can the flowers bloom
When you in tune your rose pedals in contract with those have settled in their ways
They layed down their arms and gave up thier glory days
Shortly before I walk out this door
I took a last look back and still I'm not sure
I've been a B minus boyfriend whos character was doubted
Who in every fight we had raised my voice and shouted
When I wouldn't even have to say a single thing at all
But if I strive to keep my silence it will be a lonley fall
But if I speak up now and raise my voice above the crowd noise
She only hear me hollering, she won't feel my footsteps
And following the shoes that break dance and exude balance
As the real amazing girl with an endless list of talents
That's why I'm challenging myself to grow up and spread out
If it's meant to be then its meant to be gently
Left alone to work itself out...
I just need more time
FUCK!
I don't even want to do this anymore
the phone calls, back and forth
hello I'm lost, hello I'm found, hello I want you back, goodbye
I'm by myself again, I'm really tired of being lonely
I'm sick of this........ get out of my head
I broke it off because I break everything, everthing I touch turns to dust
ooooh why, why would I want to touch anything, anymore
Sometimes we hurt so much,
It's hard to wake up at the weight of the world,
Held on your chest feels hard to breath,
Sometimes we cut just to feel,
And pray for the strength, to push down this time for real,
Unchain yourself you can be free, you can be.
There's more than one way out of this
It's time to wake up, wake up now,
It doesn't have to end like this,
It's time to get up, get up now.
Breakdown, breakout, your gonna make it through,
Your gonna make it out of this,
Breakdown, breakout, your gonna make it through,
Your gonna make it out of this.
Sometimes we rise and fall,
You lose what you got and your losing control,
There's hope for you, there's hope my friend,
Regrets we all have them,
Mistakes we made and there's light at the end,
Unchain yourself you can be free, you can be.
There's more than one way out of this
It's time to wake up, wake up now,
It doesn't have to end like this,
It's time to get up, get up now.
Breakdown, breakout, your gonna make it through,
Your gonna make it out of this,
Breakdown, breakout, your gonna make it through,
Your gonna make it out of this.
Holding on, we're holding on
We're holding on, today
Holding on, we're holding on
We're holding on
Breakdown, breakout, your gonna make it through,
Your gonna make it out of this,
Breakdown, breath in and out, wake up
Your gonna make it out of this.
Breakdown, breakout, your gonna make it through,
Your gonna make it out of this,
I saw you
You saw me
That's when I needed you
You needed me
I kissed you
You kissed me
And thought forever yeah
We'd always be
Well I like you
You like me
Seems that we fit so perfectly
You make me feel worthy
And I've let you take care of me
(Chorus)
Ohhh
Were alright now,
Gonna break down the breakdown
Move from where we stand
See what we don't want to see
I love you
You love me
Oh but lately
Somethings wearing on me
I've been growing
I've been changing
And seems like you're barely moving
(Chorus)
There is nothing we can do to get past this
Nothing you could say
Baby please don't fret
Our time has moved passed us
I love you
You love me
Is it possible we love differently
You need me but I need to
Feel strong baby without you
Thought that i was over you
Done with feeling down and blue
But here comes that heartache once again
Easy come
It's so easy to fall in love
Easy go
It's so easy to break a heart
Your life goes on
But mine it just comes apart
What's it take to
Make you
Breakdown
Breakdown these walls around your heart
Breakdown
Before i fall apart
Breakdown
Can't you see what you're doing to me
Breakdown
Before i fall apart
Breakdown
Something i remeber
Reminded me of you
Like that cold day in december
Your memory it haunts me still
Easy come
It's so easy to fall in love
Easy go
It's so easy to break a heart
Your life goes on
As for me i just play the part
What's it take to
Make you
Breakdown
Breakdown these walls around your heart
Breakdown
Before i fall apart
Breakdown
Breakdown you got me on my knees
Breakdown
How can i make you see that
I don't wanna be loved
By nobody but you
I don't wanna be touched
By nobody but you
How can i take no for an answer
What's it take to
Make you
Breakdown
Tell me
What's it take to
Make you
Breakdown
Breakdown these walls around your heart
Breakdown
Before i fall apart
Breakdown
Can't you see what you're doing to me
Breakdown
Before i fall apart
Breakdown
I hope this old train breaks down
Then I could take a walk around
And see what there is to see
Time is just a melody
With all the people in the street
Walk as fast as their feet
Can take them
I just roam through town
And though my window's got a view
Where the frame I'm looking through
Seems to have no concern for me now
So for now
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdown
Well, this engine screams out loud
Sayin' the beat gonna crawl westbound
So I don't even make a sound
'Cause it's gonna sting me when I leave this town
And all the people in the street that I'll never get to meet
If these tracks don't bend somehow
And I got no time that I got to get to
Where I don't need to be, so I
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down
But I can't stop now
Let me break on down
But you can't stop nothing
If you got no control
Of the thoughts in your mind
That you kept in, you know
You don't know nothing
But you don't need to know
The wisdom's in the trees
Not the glass windows
You can't stop wishing
If you don't let go
The things that you find
And you lose and you know
You keep on rolling
Put the moment on hold
The frame's too bright
So put the blinds down low and
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh, please just
Let me please breakdown
I wanna break on down
We can't go any further
Cayse your starting to bother
Me to insanity
It's too late to save me
Your already skin deep
But your to far to see
That I can't breath
Your suffocating
Chorus:
I'm starting to breakdown
I can't see anymore
I've fallen on the floor
]I'm paralyzed
Can someone help
I can't take a breath
To save myself
I've already had a breakdown
This is the last step
The damage has been done
But the pain has just begun
The battlews been won
I let the pain take control
Seeping into my soul
The thing I was dreading, now
I don't know where I'm heading, but
Chorus:
I'm starting to breakdown
I can't see anymore
I've fallen on the floor
I'm paralyzed
Can someone help
I can't take a breath
To save myself
I've already had a breakdown
I rolled over in my sleep
Thought this was a a bad dream
But it was real
This is what I feel
The pain is controlling me
And I'm breakingdown
I've broken down
Chorus:
I'm starting to breakdown
I can't see anymore
I've fallen on the floor
]I'm paralyzed
Can someone help
I can't take a breath
To save myself
So the sun fades and the lights break and the spark is blown away
A million miles from here to there and superman’s not anywhere
The roads about to sleep
And the smoke is thickening
Just like a part of me is dissolving
Collapsing
Were walking, but no talking, everything is hazy
Like we all are strangers and the cat took our tongues away
His lips were very still
Let the words out if you will
Cuz I’m running, I’m running out of time
Were running, were running out of time.
It happened, I heard it in the breakdown
If it ever let’s go
You know there’s no stopping now
So we stepped up, and we checked in
Another bed I’m sleeping in
Another smoke-filled crowded room
Another mirror I look into
This feeling takes awhile
Laugh it off when you make me smile
But I’m running, I’m running out of time
Were running, were running out of time
It happened, I heard it in the breakdown
If it ever let’s go
You know there’s no stopping now
It happened, I heard it in the breakdown
If it ever let’s go
You know there’s no stopping now
You know, you know…
You knew exactly what I was looking for
You knew exactly what I was looking for
It happened, I heard it in the breakdown
If it ever let’s go
You know there’s no stopping now
It happened, I heard it in the breakdown
If it ever let’s go
When was the last time you talked to me?
Seriously
I feel like I don't even know you
And I would rather me leave
Than stay and watch you make a fool of me
You might as well leave
You might as well let me know now
You might as well go, go, go
I never wanna see your face round here anymore
Cause it's a breakdown, a breakdown
Where do we go from here?
It's a breakdown, a breakdown
Looking at me lying
If I said I wasn't getting quite bored of you yet
And your consistent nagging
And your constant state of panic
Is unnecessary stress for me
You're the tip, tip, tip-top of the charts
You're the best thing I've ever done
And the reality is that I wrote this song for you
You might as well leave
You might as well let me know now
You might as well go, go, go
I never wanna see your face round here anymore
Cause it's a breakdown, a breakdown
Where do we go from here?
It's a breakdown, a breakdown
When wood floors meet high heels
And shadows form from chandeliers
When wood floors meet high heels
And shadows form from chandeliers
You might as well leave
You might as well let me know now
You might as well go, go, go
I never wanna see your face round here anymore
Cause it's a breakdown, a breakdown
Where do we go from here?
We all come in from the cold
We come down from the wire
An everybody warms themselves
to a different fire
When sometimes we get burned
You'd think sometime we'd learn
The one you love is the one
That should take you higher
You ain't got no one
You better go back out and find her
Just like children hidin' in a closet
Can't tell what's goin' on outside
Sometimes we're so far off the beaten track
We'll get taken for a ride
By a parlor trick or some words of wit
A hidden hand up a sleeve
To think the one you love
could hurt you now
Is a little hard to believe
But everybody darlin' sometimes
Bites the hand that feeds
When I look around
Everybody always brings me down
Well is it them or me
Well I just can't see
But there ain't no peace to found
But if someone really cared
Well they'd take the time to spare
A moment to try and understand
Another one's despair
Remember in this game we call life
That no one said it's fair
BREAKDOWN
Let me hear it now
BREAKDOWN
let me hear it now
Yeah
BREAKDOWN
Let me hear it now
BREAKDOWN
let me hear it now
Get down with yo' bad self
Alright
I've come to know the cold
I think of it as home
When there ain't enough of me
To go around
I'd rather be left alone
But if I call you out of habit
I'm out of love and I gotta have it
Would you give it to me
If I fit you needs
Like when we both knew we had it
But now the damage's done
And we're back out on the run
Fun how ev'rything was Roses
When we held on to the Guns
Just because you're winnin'
Don't mean you're the lucky ones
BREAKDOWN
Let me hear it now
BREAKDOWN
Yeah
BREAKDOWN
BREAKDOWN
let me hear it now
"There goes the challenger being chased
By the blue blue meanies on wheels
The vicious traffic squad cars are
After our lone driver
The last American hero
The-the electric sintar
The demi-god,
The super driver of the golden west!
Two nasty Nazi cars are close behind
The beautiful lone driver
The police cars are getting closer-closer...
Closer to our soul hero in his soul mobile- Yeah baby!
They about to strike, They gonna get him, SMASH! RAPE!
The last beautiful free soul on this planet
But...it is writen if the Evil Spirit
Arms the Tiger with claws
Brahman provided wings for the Dove
Thus spake the Super Guru" *
Here I am again, waiting for you tell me how you've been
It's been so long since I have seen you show your face
Said you've been around this place please tell me what went wrong
I don't think you've had enough, I won't let you just hold on.
Breakdown, you know everything is going wrong
Breakdown, things I've kept in side me for so
Long cause everything is getting clearing and I'm better off breakdown you know I can; t stop it now
Now it's time you know feeling like I've got no where to go show me somthing I can do to be with you somthing I could try that new just give me anything.
I don't think you've had enough, I won't let you just hold on.
Breakdown, you know everything is going wrong
Breakdown, things I've kept inside me for so
Long cause everything is getting clearing and I'm better off breakdown you know I can't stop it now
Lets go tonight charge this city
Stare towards the light the sun is setting much to fast wondering how long that we can last before it fades away
Breakdown, you know everything is going wrong
Breakdown, things I've kept in side me for so
All these rainy days I'm bored stiff
So lonely here in my home of grief
All days along I waste my time
I breathe sweet air of despair
In this air I'm not better
All the world's as on a palm
In this air time stops
And I know and always knew
This is all because of you
This is all because of me
We have lost each other (But it doesn't matter now...)
My eyes have drilled all wall around
I'm still alone, one more day is gone
The feeling of deep solitude does not leave me, won't
leave me...
You've burnt out all bridges
You have got what you wanted
You won't need me anymore
I feel a sense of disgust for my insane peers
Nothing is very much fun, day follows upon day
Year follows upon year
Feeling alone in the crowd, I'd rather close myself
Rot away in my shell
I just have to put up with it
But I cannot share that space with them
Cannot bear their stares
Have mercy: Just give me a hand as I'm down,
Hangin'on and waiting for the dawn
Of an other day, bright and clear
Without distress, painful headaches
It makes me wonder but my dreams have gone
In darker skies
Slumped in my armchair I rave, I'd rather close myself
Rot away in my shell
Nothing is very much fun, day follows upon day
Year follows upon year
I just have to put up with it
But I cannot share that space with them
Or even bear their stares
Have mercy: Just give me a hand as I'm down,
Hangin'on and waiting for the dawn
Of an other day, bright and clear
Without distress, painful headaches
It makes me wonder but my dreams have gone
In darker skies
No way out this time. Could just wait for the dawn.
(Petty)
It's alright if you love me
It's alright if you don't
I'm not afraid of you running away
Only I get the feeling you won't
There's no use in pretending
Your eyes give you away
Something inside you
Is feeling like I do
We've said all there is to say
Baby breakdown
Go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown
Honey take me to the knife
Breakdown
Now I'm standing here can't you see
Breakdown it's alright
It's alright if you love me
It's alright if you don't
I'm not afraid of you running away
Only I get the feeling you won't
Baby breakdown
Go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown
Honey take me to the knife
Breakdown
Now I'm standing here can't you see
Breakdown is alright
It's alright
It's alright
Baby breakdown
Go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown
Honey take me to the knife
Breakdown
Now I'm standing here can't you see
Breakdown is alright
It's alright
It's alright
Baby breakdown
Go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown
Honey take me to the knife
Breakdown
Now I'm standing here can't you see
Breakdown is alright
It's alright
It's alright
Baby breakdown
Go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown
Honey take me to the knife
Breakdown
Now I'm standing here can't you see
Breakdown is alright
It's alright
Breakdown
Let the fun and games begin
She is spayed and broken in
Skin is cold and white
Such a lovely, lonely night
Heaven is on the way
You could feel the hate
But I guess, you never will
I'm on a roll again
And I want an end
'Cause I feel you creepin' in
What I've found
In this town
I'm headin' for a breakdown
What's that sound?
You're so loud
I'm headin' for a breakdown
Drank up all my alcohol
This is not a free for all
I'll be there for you
Till my heart is black an' blue
Heaven is on the way
You could feel the hate
But I guess you never will
I'm on a roll again
And I want an end
'Cause I feel you creepin' in
What I've found
In this town
I'm headin' for a breakdown
What's that sound?
You're so loud
I'm headin' for a breakdown
What I've found
In this town
I'm headin' for a breakdown
What's that sound?
You're so loud
I'm headin' for a breakdown
Your blood down
Is so cold
I'm headin' for a breakdown
What's that sound?
You're so loud
I hope this old train breaks down
So I can take a walk around and
See there’s no time you see 'cause
Time is just a melody
But the people in the streets
Walkin’ fast as their feet can take ‘em
I just rode through town
And though this window’s got a view
But the frame I’m lookin’ through
Seems to have no concern for now so for now
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Well this engine screams out loud
Centipede gonna crawl westbound and
I don't even make a sound 'cause
It’s gonna sting me to leave this town
And the people in the streets
That I’ll never get to meet
If these tracks don't bend somehow
And I got no time
that I got to get to where I don’t need to be
Said...
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Oh please just
Let me please breakdown
I need this here
Old train to breakdown
Let me please break down
You know you can't stop nothin’
If you got no control
Over the thoughts in your mind
That you kept and you know
That you don’t know nothin’
But you don’t need to know
’Cause all the wisdom’s in the trees
Not the glass windows
You can't stop wishin’ if you don’t let go / I need this here
Of the things that you find and you lose and you know / Old train to breakdown
But you keep on rolling put the moment on hold / Oh please just
But the frames too bright with the blinds down low / Let me please breakdown
You know you can't stop nothin’ / I need this here
If you got no control
Over the thoughts in your mind / Old train to breakdown
That you kept and you know
That you don’t know nothin’ / Oh please just
But you don’t need to know
’Cause all the wisdom’s in the trees / Let me please breakdown
Not the glass windows
You can't stop wishin’ if you don’t let go / I need this here
Of the things that you find and you lose and you know / Old train to breakdown
But you keep on rolling put the moment on hold / Oh please just
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 okay 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 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 I breakdown 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 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 mind
Underneath the guise of 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 I breakdown and cry
Break break down, steady breakin' me on down
Break break down, steady breakin' me on down
It'll break ya down, only if you let it
Everday crazy situation's rockin' my mind
Tryin' to break me down but I won't let it, forget it
I been feelin' like you breakin' me down
Kickin' me 'round, stressin' me out
I think I better go and get out and let me relieve some stress
Don't ever wanna feel no pain, hopin' for the sun but it looks like rain
Lord, I just will not maintain, yeah, often feel the pressures ya' all
But never the less crazy won't fall, it's over, it's endin' 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 mind
Underneath the guise of 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 I breakdown 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 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
Turn down all the lights and then I breakdown 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 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

I'm headed for a fall...
I'm sure you've heard it all.. before
Oh nothing seems to change...
It always turns out the same
I'll never never get you outta my mind..
Ya know I think of it all the time
I'm goin' crazy but it's somethin' I can't explain...
The situation is insane
The feelin' keeps on growin' on inside me
I want to reach ya, want to let ya know..
Ooh why can't love be easy
But I just can't let ya go
I'm havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Oh break, havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Ya know yer bringin' me down
Havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Oh, oh..., I'm havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Oh ya know I'm breakin' down
Conversation that would make him feel so fine...
Ya know we're talkin' between the lines
Try to resist you but the little things you say...
I find it hard ta turn away
This feelin' keeps on growin' on inside me
I want to teach you, everything I know...
Ooh, love can be so easy
Why don't ya just let go
I'm havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Oh.., I'm havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Ya know yer bringin' me down
I'm havin' a breakdown, break, break, breakdown...
Havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Oh I'm, I'm breakin'
Havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Oh I'm goin' down
Havin' a breakdown, breakdown
Oh ya know I'm usually-
Havin' a, oh, oh.. oh... no
A break, breakdown
SOB:
I see you walking there on these clouds and I see you
breakdown
Driving in your fancy car. I see you breakdown
Hold me now cos I don't want to breakdown like ice.
In a restaurant, a prettiest girl
she is just about to breakdown
See em with a stylish man
We all shall breakdown
Don't fall down
It's allways the same, it's allways around
Hold me now
I don't wanna see your crown
Give me comfort and leave me here
I need to concentrate!
And in the distance the morning brakes
She is ready to hop that train.
Don't fall down
It's allways the same, it's allways around
Hold me now...
I hope you never say Goodbye
I hope you find some sense this time
Keep on shining your tender white light
Straight out from the deepest insides of your
innocence,
how everybody needs to love someone
Innocence needs to love somebody,
Innocence wants to love someone
So hold on, hold on, hold on
Try to rise above,
try to reach out for love
Look, I just shed tears homie and now I ain't to proud to admit it
Just seen my father for the first time in a minute
And when I say a minute I mean years man
Damn, a whale could have swam in them tears fam
Cause as I left em' I reflected on my younger days
When it was just me and my brother and my mother played
Father, cause no other man bothered
Not even my biological, it never seemed logical
But I accepted it cause I ain't know no better
Thought I was brighter than a Polo sweater
No pops was like Martin with no Coretta
So many things you could have told me
And saved me the trouble of letting my mistakes show me
I feel like you barely know me
And that's a shame cause our last name is the same
That blood type flowing through our veins is the same
My mama left you and it may be that anger's to blame
But that's no excuse, only you and God know the truth
And why you only call monthly, barely ever saw me
Spend some summers with you and played with my cousin Maury
Maybe I should be tellin' you fuck you cause you selfish
But I want a father so bad, I can't help but...
Break down, I break down
Can't help but break down
I never thought I'd see my mama on that shit, man
It's fucking with her body, now she sick, damn
I wanted a big house with a white picket fence and a pool
Who would have ever thought that it would come to this, man?
Quicksand is what this life feel like
That shit these rappers kick is nothing like real life
You made a milli off of servin' hard white? yeah right
My mama tell you what addicted to that pipe feel like
Stupid niggas, I heard the cops be shooting niggas
I swear to god, wish I could bullet proof my niggas
Can't get no jobs, but they still recruiting niggas
We tryna stand tall when it get too crucial niggas
Break down! We break down
We break down
We break down
break, break down
He's serving time, locked down
And she don't want nobody to know, his daughter 25 pounds
By the time he get out, she gon' be 4
Now will his girl stay down?
Ain't no doubt she love him -- yeah that's for sure
But temptation stays round
And if she strayed, how could he ever know?
And so, she goes to the club on the weekend
A little freaking, but them niggas holla
But she never speaking, but tonight I see the devil creeping
Cause she been lonely, she ain't felt a man in 7 seasons
Damn! She do the best that she can
Her mama telling her to find another man
She college educated with a felon boyfriend
That's what she thinking tonight
Maybe she's right, but please
Stay down mama! Gotta be strong, don't break down mama!
Please..
Stay down mama! Gotta be strong, don't break down mama!
don't break down
don't break down
don't break down
don't break down
I breakdown in the middle and lose my thread
No one can understand a word that I say
When I breakdown just a little and lose my head
Nothing I try to do can work the same way
Any time it happened, I'd get over it
With a little help from all my best friends
Anybody else could see what's wrong with me
But they walk away and just pretend
When I breakdown
I breakdown in the middle and lose my thread
No one can understand a word that I say
When I breakdown just a little and lose my head
Nothing I try to do can work the same way
Where are all the friends who used to talk to me?
All they ever told me was good news
People that I've never seen are kind to me
Is it any wonder I'm confused?
When I breakdown
When I breakdown
(Freedom, freedom, we will not obey)
(Freedom, freedom, take the wall away)
Take the wall away
(Freedom, freedom, we will not obey)
(Freedom, freedom, take the wall away)
Where are all my friends?
I'm so confused
Take the wall away
(Freedom, freedom)
Take the wall away
(Freedom, freedom)
I've seen a man cry, I've seen a man shout out
Afraid of losing the woman he loves
I've seen a woman lying to her man flat out
About who she's beddin' with and where she was
I've seen a low fire and tried to figure it out
This fighting isn't going anywhere
I've seen a child's eyes watching his parents freak out
I know they see him but they just don't care
It won't stop if they don't stop yelling
It's not the way of working your problems out
I can't stand being around this yelling
So I'm finding my way out
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Packing my things and getting out of this town
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
I've seen a child's eyes, I've seen him living in doubt
Not ever knowing what it's like to be in love
I've seen his friends try nd just to help him get out
He never told them what the problem really was
I've seen a suicide they couldn't figure it out
He blamed himself because they couldn't get along
I've seen his parents' eyes trying to figure it out
Where did our baby go and what went wrong?
It won't stop if they don't stop yelling
It's not the way of working your problems out
I can't stand being around this yelling
So I'm finding my way out
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Packing my things and getting out of this town
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Hold it inside until I breakdown
Not gonna try until I breakdown
Say my goodbyes until I breakdown
Baby, come on
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Packing my things and getting out of this town
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
I'm gonna drive and never ever slow down
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Packing my things and getting out of this town
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
I'm gonna drive until I breakdown
Hold it inside until I breakdown
The tension is building up
Its getting me down
I go crazy inside every little time you're around
You say that you're leavin' now but you can't tell me why
What I'm saying is...
Tell me what's the good in goodbye?
Breakdown
Shakedown
Feel that...
Let the rhythm take you over now.
Don't fight it when it feels so right
You know we could dance until the moon goes down
For so long
I've been on my own

The music takes hold and you can't deny
There's just feelins you can't describe...
Hold on

Back where the dogs bark

where the lame star limps an endless mile
have I gone too far inside my mind?
oh if you were the one would I even notice now my mind has gone?
oh if you were the one, would I even notice?
Back where the car was parked
Where the canine in the A-line stole your time
you can only go so far for womankind
oh if you were the one, would I even notice now that he has come?
oh, if you were the one, would I even notice?
Now come on
Now come on can't you see
It's printed in black and white

Suckered by your lies

MARIAH CAREY featuring Bone thugs-n-harmony
[Birds chirping.]
Layzie:
Over, over. Don't break down yet, it's over.
Over, over. Don't break down yet, it's over.
Over, over.
Krazie:
Steady breakin' me on down.
Mariah:
Oooh.
Krazie:
Break, breakdown. Steady breakin' me on down.
Break, breakdown. Steady breakin' me on down.
Mariah:
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 unyeilding and sacred to me.
Mariah:
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 disguise 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 I break down and cry.
Mariah:
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?" [Krayzie:
Gotta get control and roll, roll, roll on.] Do you lash out and say, "How dare
you leave this way?" Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away?
Mariah:
Well, I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it[Krazie: Break, breakdown. Steady
breakin' me on down.] 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 disguise 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 I break down and cry.
Wish:
Gonna break ya down, down, down, only if ya let it [Don't let it.]. Everyday
crazy situations rockin' my mind tryin' to break me down, but I won't let it.
Forget it. If ya feel the same way that I do, then let me help y'all, all
singin' tunes, sayin' "It's all right, it's all right, it's all right, yeah."
Hopin' for the sun, but it looks like rain, P.O.D'ed, but it's still the same.
Came far, but it's been a long road. Trouble's gonna come but we gotta stay
strong. Hold on.
Krayzie:
Aw, yeah, I often feel the pressures, y'all, but nevertheless Krayzie won't
fall. It's over. It's endin' here [here]. I said it's over. It's endin' here
[here], so I'll be on my way, and maybe we can meet up in the future one day,
but for now I'm bailin', bailin'. Bailin', baby, gotta get up, can't take no
more. I'm headed for the door, come and take a look into a thug humble eye.
Tell me: if we lived a lie, would our souls unite?
Layzie:
Every new day is a test for me, so I just pray the Lord for Him to bless me,
please. There's struggles I'm goin' through lately, breaks me down, set me
free. Let me be. Let me be. Who else do I have to rely on? Whose shoulder can a
thug go cry on? Can I get my vibe on? While you look into my eyes, you won't
underestimate, and this soldier story, I'm'a tell you right now I'm fed up.
Wrong if I let my lead bust? Pac said keep your head up. Don't let this world
get the best of you, I'm a stress you through it, if it's over, over, over.
Don't breakdown yet, it's over.
Mariah:
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 disguise 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
When the whirlwind of noise surrounds and get intense,
and when words can't hide their anger or intent.
I feel it in my bones and in my head, can't make sense
of what is said.
Ready for the take down, headed for a breakdown.
Fear has me backed against these walls that I follow
and pace.
Time moves in and out of phase of everything that I
face.
I feel it in my bones they rattle and shake, can't find
a trace of what it takes to stop this take down.
Can't stop this breakdown!
Welcome to my scene. A place that's in-between where
squares fit the round.
Some affectionately call it ... my breakdown....
When I feel the pressure mounting and my hands begin to
clutch,
I reach my limit of pain and I've had enough.
It feels good to pound on tables and chairs and feel
the frenzy start to wear.
Breakdown this take down, gotta stop this breakdown.
Welcome to my scene. A place that's in-between where
squares fit the round.
I'll write you a love song. With heartache twine and ink, I'll lace the life I love together, for you to string around your neck. In time to come, and time long gone it will be a jeweler's story that you wont soon forget. I will gather in a broken bundle everything I feel for you and I'll place it there for you to find it. Everything you tried so hard not to hear. Look out to the rising night sky and console myself in tomorrow. Blow you a kiss. Collapse in defeat. Sing myself to sleep with bittersweet songs of regret. I'll write you a love song. Shower you with music, words, and kisses. It's my only revenge. It's my only defense against you so beautiful and strong. I'll write you a love song. And I remember just a little too much. And I remember just enough to hear your voice, to taste your lips, to feel your touch, to scream with pain at the difference between loneliness and love. I remember you and me as us. Breakdown.
I'm walkin' blind through a mountain,
slip through a crack in the sky
I'm chasin' stars on a moon beam,
some people can't even fly
she's livin life for the moment,
stating a case that is real still unaffected by most men,
the kinda heart you cant steal she wont be lonely...
Break down to the bone
Break down is a mental emotion
Break down to your soul
Worlds is turnin' it feels like were out of control
I'm tied down
I can feel it,
the weight is heavy
I know but in the end
I will be there, ain't no place I can't go
I won't be lobely...
Break down to the bone
Break down is a mental emotion
Break down to your soul

Can't breathe, can't see, this stress
Built up inside of me
I'll take away the pressure of this world today
Break, I breakdown, break
I feel the pressure coming
Can't seem to turn around
Can't stop to save my life and
I'm gonna hit the ground
Break
I've never felt something like this
Can't believe that I could hate myself
For what it's worth and I wish it all away
When I can't see, and don't believe
When I can't feel inside of me
I'm breaking down, I fall apart
This stress built up
Why even try?
I breakdown, I breakdown
I breakdown, I breakdown
I break
Can't breathe, can't see
This stress built up inside of me
Break, I breakdown, break
When I can't see, and don't believe
When I can't feel inside of me
I'm breaking down, I fall apart
This stress built up
Why even try?
Can't you see my breaking down?
Can't you see my breaking down?
Can't you see my breaking down?
It's alright if you love me
It's alright if you don't
I'm not afraid of you runnin' away
Honey, I get the feelin', you won't
There is no sense in pretendin'
Your eyes give you away
Somethin' inside you is feelin' like I do
We've said all there is to say
Baby breakdown, go ahead, give it to me
Breakdown, honey take me through the night
Breakdown, now I'm standin' here, can you see?
Breakdown, it's alright
It's alright
It's alright
Breakdown, go ahead, give it to me
Breakdown, honey take me through the night
Breakdown, now I'm standin' here, can you see?
Breakdown, it's alright
It's alright
It's alright if you love me
It's alright if you don't
I'm not afraid of you running away,
Honey, I get the feeling you wont
There is no sense in pretending
Your eyes give you away
Something inside you is feeling like I do
We've said all there is to say
Breakdown, go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown honey take me through the night
Breakdown now I'm standing here can't you see
Breakdown it's all right
It's all right
I get you ready for the breakdown. I'm the feeling inside you that just wants to explode.
I never sugarcoat a shakedown.
So empty all your pockets of the things that you think you know.
You can bow to the prophet.
You can make him an offer.
But you're gonna reap what you sow.
I get you ready for the breakdown.
I'm the feeling inside you.
You know you will never control.
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
I know the sound that drags you downtown.
Drags you from your job and the hardwired boredom of house.
I see you changing from the neck down.
Do you walk it like you talk it?
Or say it just to hear it out loud?
You can drag it for miles.
You can make it your style.
Never do you much good in the ground.
I get you ready for the breakdown.
I'm the something inside you that makes you want to slither and howl.
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
One good love so don't let it breakdown.
Something in there that never should shutdown.
Your precious will.
Feed your precious will.
Guard your precious will.
Your precious will.
I get you ready for the breakdown.
The finest minds of my generation are all connected to the zeroes and ones.
By now you know this is a shakedown.
So empty all your pockets of the things you thought you had done.
I bowed to the prophet.
And I did it so often.
He said, "man, you look good in my clothes..".
I get you ready for the breakdown, I'm the feeling inside you.
It just wants to explode.
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Answer: Your Precious Will.
Hello City
Words Music by Steven Page Ed Robertson
Hello city ...
Another night at the Palace 'cause there is nothing else to do.
The same people, the same drinks and the same music, the same quicksand.
I think this harbour town is waist deep and sinking fast.
Chorus
Hello city, you've found an enemy in me.
Hello city, hello city.
Second night at the Warehouse,
and my mock turtleneck just reeks.
From the liquor room to the changeroom,
to the doom and gloom of the hotel room.
I wish this seaside beerhall would sink into the bay.
Chorus
Maybe I caught you at a bad time.
Maybe I should call you back next week.
Maybe half the fault was mine that
the sun didn't shine on Barrington Street.
It's three o'clock in the morning,
and I'm hungry so let's eat.
Climb down three flights to the streetlights,
and the bar-fights, we're just taking in the sights.
I hope tomorrow that I wake up in my own bed.
Chorus
What a good place to be.. Don't believe them,'cause they speak a different language
and it's never been happy for me.
It's Happy Hour again.
Hello city..Hello city..
Sometimes we hurt so much
it's hard to wake up with the weight of the world
held on your chest feels hard to breath
Sometimes we cut just to feel
and pray for the strength to push down this time for real
unchain yourself you can be free you can be
There's more than one way out of this
it's time to wake up wake up now
It doesn't have to end like this
its time to get up get up now
Break down break out
your gonna make it through
your gonna make it out of this
Break down break out
your gonna make it through
your gonna make it out of this
Sometimes we rise and fall
you lose what you got and your losing control
there's hope for you there's hope my friend
regrets we all have them
mistakes we've made and there's light at the end
unchain yourself you can be free you can be
There's more than one way out of this
it's time to wake up wake up now
It doesn't have to end like this
its time to get up get up now
Break down break out
your gonna make it through
your gonna make it out of this
Break down break out
your gonna make it through
your gonna make it out of this
Holding on
we're holding on
we're holding on today
Break down break out
your gonna make it through
your gonna make it out of this
Break down break out
your gonna make it through
your gonna make it out of this
Hey kid,
Don't give up,
You know your life is what you make it.
Don't ever stop,
You got a chance you'd better take it.
Cause even when the skies are darkened,
Inside your heart there's still a light.
You know you're headed for a breakdown,
But don't give it up,
Cause you could own this town tonight,
And there's no reason you should get down,
Cause I'll pick you up next time you feel bad.
Make it the best you ever had,
Make it the best you ever had,
Make it the best you ever had.
Tears in your eyes,
I know somebody really hurt you,
Give it sometime and realize you could've pulled through.
Cause if you want someone to love you,
You'd better learn to love yourself.
You know you're headed for a breakdown,
But don't give it up,
Cause you could own this town tonight,
And there's no reason you should get down,
Cause I'll pick you up next time you feel bad.
Make it the best you ever had,
Make it the best you ever had,
Make it the best you ever had.
So next time you're down,
Call me anytime and I'll come around,
Cause you're the brightest star I found.
You know you're headed for a breakdown,
But don't give it up,
Cause you could own this town tonight,
And there's no reason you should get down,
Cause I'll pick you up next time you feel bad,
Make it the best you ever had.
Breakdown,
But don't give it up,
Cause you could own this town tonight,
And there's no reason you should get down,
Cause I'll pick you up next time you feel bad,
Make it the best you ever had.
Breakdown,
But don't give it up,
Cause you could own this town tonight,
And there's no reason you should get down,
Cause I'll pick you up next time you feel bad,
and love's a dangerous game to play
from now on
it's just a lie
it's just a sign
like stilted conversations that ended
with closed books
tells you to forget
something told me yesterday
from now on
it's time to find
that you are not just dreaming
now it's time for waking up
tells you to forget
splinter
a thousand fragments disperse and die
and love's serious game we play
from time to time
we wonder why
like a sudden realisation
that tells you it's no good
tells you to forget
but you can't
we play our games
we say we'll change this time
it's for real
we'll avoid those mistakes
but dreams get broken
in the wake and the promises are fake
breakdown about to come around again
Guess what
I got dirty chemistry
Know what
You spiked my drink and poisoned me
Back off
Unless you wanna see me bleed
Get off
That's what I need
I don't hear what you're saying
I can't hear anything
The guitar is too loud
It's making my head ring
Can't sleep can't see
Everytime I speak I'm stuttering
Can't breathe can't be
Everywhere I walk I'm stumbling
If a heart shatters does it make a sound
Or is it just your normal average
Everyday breakdown
(Breakdown)
Shut up
Am I your experiment
Messed up
Do you think it's permanent
Freaked out
Why am I a basket case
Tripped out
What a waste
I don't know what I'm saying
The walls are closing in
The sun is way too bright
It's making my head spin
Can't sleep can't see
Everytime I speak I'm stuttering
Can't breathe can't be
Everywhere I walk I'm stumbling
If a heart shatters does it make a sound
Or is it just your normal average
Everyday breakdown breakdown
Break down in to a million pieces
Breakdown curled up on the floor
Well at least i'm feeling sommething
Thank God I'm feeling something
Can't sleep can't see
Everytime I speak I'm stuttering
Can't breathe can't be
Everywhere I walk I'm stumbling
If a heart shatters does it make a sound
If a heart shatters does it make a sound
Or is it just your normal average
No need for caution, It's a meltdown, a breakdown
Pretty girls dressed up in their ice gowns, in a hot town
On a disco floor struck by the lighning, it's frightening
Throw out that rule book now, we're gonna can it, don't panic
Grease up your green shoes, come on and get down, in the breakdown
All these crazy kids comin' from all around, they got no frowns
Showin' off the moves they stole from outer space, without a trace
So girl jump in with me, we gotta take a leap to be free
Chorus:
Lose all self control, I wanna get you so high
So let the music come free your shackled soul
Lose all self control, I wanna take you so far
We can leave everything on the floor tonight
No need for caution, it's a meltdown, gonna burn it down
Infected with this groove they got no frowns, in this town
Show off the moves we stole from outer space, leave no trace
So girl jump in with me, we gotta take a leap to be free
Dust off your moon-shoes, come and get down, in the breakdown
All these crazy kids comin' from all around, they got no frowns
It's such a strange sound, but don't be afraid, to gravitate
We can liberate the night, come feel alive, it's alright
Chorus:
Lose all self control, I wanna get you so high
So let the music come free your shackled soul
Lose all self control, I wanna take you so far
We can leave everything on the floor tonight
You gotta let up
Hallucinate
Dream space
An effigy
Shadow play
Harmonize
No escape
Pressurize,
everybody now, 'till they say
Sound it out
Sound it out
Sound it out
Sound it out
She's gone crazy
For real,
or just me?
She's addressed,
but can she sing?
Where's the truth,
in the tongue?
Pressurize,
everybody now, 'till they say
Sound it out
Sound it out
Sound it out
Sound it out
She's gone crazy
You gotta let up,
or you're headed for a breakdown
You gotta let up,
or you're headed for a breakdown
You gotta let up,
or you're headed for a breakdown
You gotta let up,
or you're headed for a breakdown
You gotta let up,
or you're headed for a breakdown
You gotta let up,
[Instrumental]
Daddy didn't lock it so you found your favourite toy
You got power burning in your hand you naughty little boy
So then something deep
inside you doesn't know that it's for real
You wanna lite up the show so now we know the way you feel
You breakdown
Breakdown
Who will save you
When we only wanna blame you
We're gonna breakdown
We're gonna break
Trenchcoat invades the day and blows us all away
Immitation all around you wanna play the game
So then you break down the walls around the demons in your head
And then you let 'em run around the world and swallow you instead
Breakdown
Breakdown
Who will save you
When we only wanna blame you
Cause you take what's all around you
And then we wonder why
Why you are the way you are just take a look around
We're gonna breakdown
Who will save you
When we only wanna blame you
Cause you take what's all around you
And then we wonder why
Why you are the way you are just take a
look around
We're gonna breakdown
We're gonna break
We're gona breakdown
How could I stay?
How could I breathe?
There had to be more for me
Promises gone
Plastic and stone
I'm doin' fine all alone
So you're havin' a breakdown
So you're losin' the fight
So you're havin' a breakdown
And I'm drivin' and cryin'
Unraveled and flyin'
I'm comin' to your breakdown tonight
I cannot run
And I cannot hide
It came with me locked inside
The bough will break
Cradle will fall
It only takes one call
So you're havin' a breakdown
So you're losin' the fight
So you're havin' a breakdown
And I'm drivin' and cryin'
Unraveled and flyin'
I'm comin' to your breakdown tonight
Oooh aah
Ohh huh huh
So you're havin' a breakdown
So you're losin' the fight
Oh, so you're havin' a breakdown
And you need me tonight
Ohh oh, I found my place in this downtown
Salt air and yellow street lights
Aah yes
So you're havin' a breakdown
And I'm drivin' and cryin'
Unraveled and flyin'
I'm comin' to you're breakdown tonight
And I don't hear you anymore
And I can't see you on the floor
It's like a nightmare come to life
But don't be frightened of the light
And all the days you pushed around
And all the times you lied to yourself
And all the dreams we had just might
Breakdown
Breakdown
And I wonder who you love really love
You know I want you too much
You know it kills me the thought
I want to scream I want to cry
Just to save myself just one last time
And all the days you pushed around
And all the times you lied to yourself
And all the dreams we had just might
Breakdown
Breakdown
And I wonder who you love really love
And all the days you pushed around
And all the times you lied to yourself
And all the dreams we had just might
Breakdown
Breakdown
Breakdown
BREAKDOWN
Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown.
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown.
Shot you full of rock'n roll, couldn't make your soul,
didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
I never saw the tears but I knew you cried for rhythm'n'blues.
Screaming like a wildcat I knew that I had nothing to lose.
Shot you full of rock'n roll, couldn't make your soul,
didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown.
Shaking like a leaf in the wind see me blowing away.
Never see me fall on the ground till I've had my say.
Shot you full of rock'n roll, couldn't make your soul,
didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown.
Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown.
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown.
Shot you full of rock'n'roll, couldn't make your soul,
didn't burn you to the bone.
Do what the man says, take the money and run.
But I never saw the splendour in stealing all your gold,
taking all your silver and doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown,
breakdown.
I get you ready for the breakdown. I'm the feeling inside you that just wants to explode.
I never sugarcoat a shakedown.
So empty all your pockets of the things that you think you know.
You can bow to the prophet.
You can make him an offer.
But you're gonna reap what you sow.
I get you ready for the breakdown.
I'm the feeling inside you.
You know you will never control.
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
I know the sound that drags you downtown.
Drags you from your job and the hardwired boredom of house.
I see you changing from the neck down.
Do you walk it like you talk it?
Or say it just to hear it out loud?
You can drag it for miles.
You can make it your style.
Never do you much good in the ground.
I get you ready for the breakdown.
I'm the something inside you that makes you want to slither and howl.
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
One good love so don't let it breakdown.
Something in there that never should shutdown.
Your precious will.
Feed your precious will.
Guard your precious will.
Your precious will.
I get you ready for the breakdown.
The finest minds of my generation are all connected to the zeroes and ones.
By now you know this is a shakedown.
So empty all your pockets of the things you thought you had done.
I bowed to the prophet.
And I did it so often.
He said, "man, you look good in my clothes.".
I get you ready for the breakdown, I'm the feeling inside you.
It just wants to explode.
Do you know what you're runnin' on?
Screamin for mercy, you are so pitiful
Run for some shelter, try to escape from me
Can you stand it or will you just give up
You know you can't take it
Because I am the one
To tear you up
Take you down
My how the torture
Shows in your eyes
It shows- in your eyes
Grab your belongings, take the next train out of town
The full moon is rising I'm comin to get you now
Blood will be flying when I hit you with full force
And soon you'll be crying, oh why do I have to die?
You are so selfish
Never time for no one
Will you accept it
Your time has finally come
Breakdown
Woman you're breaking me down
Breakdown
In this strange world we have to live in
Protected by some taken granted by all
Time honoured thoughts end disapproving
With all dominions ever ready to fall
You won't beat the pack that's no revelation
Come snapping their jaws right on your heels
Making your way through all this confusion
The harder you try the less it reveals
I know what happens the moment you turn out your light
I know what happens it happens to me every night
You start to breakdown
You're gonna crucify yourself you're lost
When you get pushed round
Another refugee to bear the cross
Now every course blighted by answers
Acutely profane no help in this brawl
And from the mouths that never felt hunger
Comes no deliverance just a timely withdrawal
What of your thoughts not yet discovered
Along with the fears they'll both play their part
You'll work it out then run for cover
I'm breaking down again, can't close my eyes
Don't wanna die again tonight
I'm ripped in two again, can't hold the fire
Am I holding on too tight
I can't believe it
I'd throw it all away
I can't believe it
My life's not the same as yesterday
It's undiscovered
The future's so unclear
Will I discover
The life that I want
I've got a feeling
That I will rise again
I've got a feeling
These nightmares I'm living will end
I'll wait a lifetime to catch that endless flight
I'll need a lifetime trying my best
Over and over I ask why
Breakdown
Breakdown
Breakdown
Breakdown
I'm gonna leave you baby so far behind
'Cause you're upset and twisted and you're out of your mind
And you know I don't love you and we're wasting our time
Come on give me a reason, help me make up my mind
There are cold days in this winter
But it's not by my design
I'm a victim of your misfortune
In a terminal decline
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
I'm gonna leave you baby so far behind
'Cause you're fucked up and twisted and you're out of your mind
And you know I don't love you and we're wasting our time
Come on give me a reason, help me make up my mind
Make up my mind
I don't know what lies in the future
I don't know how long it will last
You could lose yourself in the task
My heart is on fire but it's burning low
I can't get much higher, there's no where to go
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Did it make you wonder who you are and where you might come from?
Does it seem to have it's way?
Would it make it any easier to know that there's a truth?
Would we just keep things this way?
She's been crying for a lot of things that she can't fit about
It was a mental break down
Something happened
You're not home
I've got to find you
Look behind you
Consider this
And one last time they say is all it takes to make it
through the day
One last time to get things right
We could never open up this way and hold this key to life
For our eyes is much to bright
I've been standing for a lot of things
but now I can't figure out
It was a mental break down
Something happened
You're not home
I've got to find you
look behind you
consider this
she's been crying for a lot of things
that she cant fit about
i've been standing for a lot of things
i can't figure out
it was a mental break down
something happened
you're not home
but you're never home
i've got to find you
look behind you
consider this
you always tried so hard - but i could forget you all
the same
your concept never happened of love
it's your manner that betrayed you - and your god above
mistrust - the chain between us
i'm not in your head, you're not in mine
it's heavy-handed - to the baseline - to the baseline -
to the baseline
now -you lie on the floor
the ceiling's coming down
but even can't break the door
this - is your breakdown
have you ever felt like falling
onto your own?
now - see the timeline
it's going underground
but it's your turn to combine
you - say you guard me
but i've used the time to learn
and now i can see
mitrust - the chain between us
i'm not in your head, you're not in mine
it's heavy-handed - to the baseline - to the baseline -
to the baseline
cause you don't know
that you need row
sow your wild oats
your manner is - beyond the pale
Come on, come on, pick me up
Go on, go on, let me down
You couldn't tell me if I asked you
"Do you still want me around?"
Come on, come on play your games
Go on, go on, say my name
You won't, you won't stay the same
And don't you know it's just not like me to wait?
Cause you give me your reasons
But I've heard them all before
This is it, and I'll admit that
I breakdown, I breakdown when I can't see you
I breakdown, I breakdown when you don't call
And I've told myself a thousand times
That if you left I'd be alright and
I breakdown, I breakdown if I can't see you tonight
Come on, come on, keep me here
Go on, go on, watch my tears
Go on, go on, say goodbye cause I know, I know it won't be the last time
Go on and I'll watch you go
Go on, go on, I just hope you know
It's a slim to none chance that I'll be here when you get home
Cause you give me your reasons
But I've heard them all before
This is it, and I'll admit that
I breakdown, I breakdown when I can't see you
I breakdown, I breakdown when you don't call
And I've told myself a thousand times
That if you left I'd be alright and
I breakdown, I breakdown if I can't see you tonight
I really don't wanna talk it out
There's nothing left here to fight about or cry about
So don't misunderstand me, I'm giving up
I really don't wanna see your face,
When you look at me that way like it's a game
I'm really not OK but I won't
Breakdown and breakdown if I can't see you
No I won't breakdown and breakdown if you don't call
I breakdown, I breakdown if I can't see you
I breakdown, I breakdown if you don't call
And I've done this all a thousand times
So now I know I'll be alright and
I breakdown, I breakdown but I won't
I can't stop myself now but I won't
Breakdown and breakdown if I can't see you tonight
I watched you grow into beautiful
I carry on like I sometimes do
They say it's my face
But I see your mothers magic
And everything that's you
And I love the way
You always wake me
From those faded re-run dreams
I sort of breakdown
Following you
You get around
So well without me
If I could breakdown
Build a world to keep you in this state
So innocent and pure
I'd build it that way
Build it that way
I hope you know when it's critical
It's okay, rely on only me
If the wheels come off
And your stranded on your way remember
There's nothing I won't do
And I miss the way
You always wake me
From those faded re-run dreams
I sort of breakdown
Following you
You get around
So well without me
If I could breakdown
Build a world to keep you in this state
So innocent and pure
I'd build it that way
Keep this safe inside
(Build it that way)
Save you from the gradual decline
(Build it that way)
Until the day in life when
Trust is taken from your heart
And I'll keep it alive in your smile
I sort of breakdown
Following you
You get around
So well without me
If I could breakdown
Build a world to keep you in this state
So innocent and pure
I'd build it that way
Cut it out
Who do you think you are
Do I really need to spell it out
The ways that you're falling short
Don't you, don't you, don't you see it
Building up where you can't reach it
Falling, falling, falling to the ground
Before you run your mouth
Before you run your mouth
Turn it inside out and save it for the breakdown
How do you
Know that what you see
Is a vision of reality,
and not some distorted scene
Don't you, don't you, don't you see it
Building up where you can't reach it
Falling, falling, falling to the ground
Before you run your mouth
Before you run your mouth
Turn it inside out and tell me what you see now
Before you run your mouth
Before you build your house
Build it inside out,
and save it for the breakdown
For your breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
For your breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Before you run your mouth
Before you run your mouth
Turn it inside out and tell me what you see now
Before you run your mouth
Before you build your house
Build it inside out,
and save it for the breakdown
For your breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
I step into the darkness
Preparing for the light
I do expect the hardest
And deferred off to the side
I still sense the difference
Darkened kinds of need
I try to feel the distance
Between the ground and feet
Sometimes it seems to me
This little invitation
Is smiling down on me
Without retaliation
The purpose comes within
The different dependency
The colours fade to grey
It's better for you to see
I step into a room
With mirrors of disguise
My teeth begin to flicker
Breakdown (are you looking for a breakdown)
Shakedown (maybe a shakedown baby)
If you¡¯re looking for a breakdown
If you¡¯re looking for a shakedown
I can feel it in the air tonight and it feels all right
Didn¡¯t see it comin'
And it¡¯s something that I can¡¯t deny
It takes me high
But I know that I¡¯m not afraid, not gonna hide away
I feel alive
Tonight
Oh yeah yeah
CHORUS
If you¡¯re looking for a breakdown
Where the kicks are comin' for free
Where the mood is right
And the beats are tight
You can kick it with me
If you¡¯re looking for a shakedown
Where the mix is on the money
You know, I know that you can kick it with me
Everybody howdy howdy, shake your booty, move your body
Everybody make it rowdy that you can kick it with me
Hey girl I can see it to that you¡¯re feelin' rude
Are you comin'?
'Cause you know that I aim to please
That¡¯s the way it is (yeah)
Swing your fine self around to me
And I¡¯ll make you see I feel alive
Tonight
Yeah oh yeah yeah
CHORUS
Baby, can we, get up, on it?
Better tell me, do you, want it?
CHORUS x2
Rape my soul
Sometimes the truth can be too hard to swallow
Rape my soul
Sometimes the truth can be too hard
Broke out from the chains of stain
Losin` all control
Being hung from my veins
Look into my face
Tell me what you see
A man who`s made mistakes or a human disgrace
Emotionally bankrupt and physically corrupt
Weight upon my head is like a ten ton dump truck
Public humiliations, mental assassination
Losin all control of my mental life sensation
Rape my soul
Sometimes the truth can be too hard to swallow
Rape my soul
Sometimes the truth can be too hard
Hey no fuck that I`m being mobbed by the pressure of the rat race
Rather spit on my face than speak my mind put behind by appression
Only microphone can aleve me from the stress
Fear it, dont want to hear it transmit the lyric
To take you inside and make you fuse to your spirit
Hopefully you can see that you can rise above
If you cant you`s a buster and you get no love, 'cause!
Rape my soul
Sometimes the truth can be too hard to swallow
Rape my soul
Sometimes the truth can be too hard
This is how it sounds, sounds
This is how it sounds, when it all breaks down
Decompression try absorb my life lesson
Try rip the system that keeps my head stessing
Getting frantic from transatlantic
To Trans Euro I express Buddha blessed
Transcend the stress of all that other shit
Fuck the government, heed the profit
This is how it all goes down so watch me drop this kid
This is how you fuckin` give me thanks
My fingers on the trigger hollow tip point blank
This is how it sounds, sounds
This is how it sounds, when it all breaks down
All let masses who can hear me
Know that with no hope and Babylon
Force feeding information down your throat
I close my eyes and clench my fist
Because it`s hard to cope when walking down the path of good is like tight rope
This is how it sounds, sounds
This is how it sounds, when it all breaks down
When it all goes down, when it all breaks down,
If I seem a little jittery I can't restrain myself
I'm falling into fancy fragments - can't contain myself
I'm gonna breakdown - breakdown yes
Now I can stand austerity but it gets a little much
when there's all these livid things that you never get to touch
I'm gonna breakdown ...
I feel me brain like porridge coming out of me ears
and I was anticipating reverie
I've taken leave of me senses - and I'm in arrears
my legs buckle over - I'm living on my knees
I'm gonna breakdown ...
Whatever makes me tick it takes away my concentration
sets my hands a-trembling - gives me frustration
I'm gonna breakdown ...
So I hear that two is company for me it's plenty trouble
though my double thoughts are clearer now that I am seeing double
I'm gonna breakdown ...
Oh mum can I grow out of what's too big for me?
I'll give up that ghost before it gives up me
I wander loaded as a crowd - a nowhere wolf of pain
Living next to nothing - my nevermind remains
I'm gonna breakdown ...

It makes me breakdown breakdown

You can't believe that stuff
I know you know I know we know
we all come in from the cold
we come down from the wire
an everybody warms themselves
to a different fire
when sometimes we get burned
you'd think sometime we'd learn
the one you love is the one
that should take you higher
you ain't got no one
you better go back out and find her
just like children hidin' in a closet
can't tell what's goin' on outside
sometimes we're so far off the beaten track
we'll get taken for a ride
by a parlor trick or some words of wit
a hidden hand up a sleeve
to think that the one you love
could hurt you now
is a little hard to believe
but everybody darlin' sometimes
bites the hand that feeds
when i look around
everybody always brings me down
well is it them or me well i just can't see
but there ain't no peace to be found
but if someone really cared,

a moment to try to understand
another one's despair

like when we both knew we had it

I feel the need to get away, and find a code into the sun
The people that were turned away, have nowhere left to run
It's a polarised and subsidised government decision
Come and join us now boy be amongst the winners
The circle is a showdown, epicentre for the fiction
And the policies are for you, if you will be with us
They know what to say when, they know what to say now,
They know what to say, when they're falling down
We're heading for a breakdown, we're heading for a fall
A government shakedown, that's heading to the wall
To find today in sorrowed state, and a past that's given way,
To a rationale economy, with a lock above the gate
It's a polarised and subsidised government decision
Come and join us now boy be amongst the winners
The circle is a showdown, epicentre for the fiction
And the policies are for you, if you will be with us
They know what to say when, they know what to say now,
They know what to say, when they're falling down
We're heading for a breakdown, we're heading for a fall
A government shakedown, that's heading to the wall
Now come on
Now come on can't you see
It's printed in black and white
That the news today
Is that some poor boy lies dead
The papers gloat and tell
They live in Bitch City
The one that has no soul
It makes me breakdown breakdown

Unjustified, persecution of my free mind.
I'm horrified, the cruel nature of you and your kind
Crucified for just trying to be myself.
Suicide, I'd rather die than live in your hell.
I will not break, I will not bend,
I will not go quietly, I will never bow down to them.
I close my eyes, I can see more clearly,
You criticize the things I hold dearly
You victimize because you fear me
It's your demise, you should have let me be.
You won't break me down.
The harder I swim against the tide the more it pulls me down
Feel the pressure on my life, as I struggle and fight not to drown.
Why do you, why do you try to break me, you'll never break me down.
I'll never let you break me, you'll never break me down.
The more I try to live my life the harder you are on me
"It's magic", she says to me.
My hand to her waist as she approaches sweetly.
It's enough when I see that look in her eyes,
It's enough for me to paralyze.
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
Well nothing feels good being under the gun.
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
"It's tragic", she says to me.
A song in the air, we're together floating.
What I miss everyday since our goodbye,
was enough for me to realize.
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
Well nothing feels good being under the gun.
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
Is it ever going to come?
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
Well nothing feels good being under the gun.
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
So take care what you wish for, for it may come true.
But that September sky, how it whispered "I love you".
But I couldn't take it any longer, no I couldn't stand.
But the nights brought sparks and the sparks brought flames,
And you had to be sure this wasn't one of those games.
But I'm going to show you if you could just give me tonight.
Tonight...
"Its fragile", she says to me.
The hair in her eyes, she removes it smiling.
There's a wound that I know this song could mend,
A step in time for us will never end.
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
Well nothing feels good being under the gun.
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
Is it ever gonna come?
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
Well nothing feels good, being under the gun.
Oh, I'm waiting for the breakdown.
I'm waiting, for the breakdown.
I'm waiting, for the comedown.
I'm waiting (she says it's magic)
for the breakdown (I'm floating weightless)
I'm waiting (she says it's magic)
for the comedown (here comes the breakdown)
[4x]
Breakdown (are you looking for a breakdown)
Shakedown (maybe a shakedown baby)
If you’re looking for a breakdown
If you’re looking for a shakedown
I can feel it in the air tonight and it feels all right
Didn’t see it comin'
And it’s something that I can’t deny
It takes me high
But I know that I’m not afraid, not gonna hide away
I feel alive
Tonight
Oh yeah yeah
[CHORUS]
If you’re looking for a breakdown
Where the kicks are comin' for free
Where the mood is right
And the beats are tight
You can kick it with me
If you’re looking for a shakedown
Where the mix is on the money
You know, I know that you can kick it with me
Everybody howdy howdy, shake your booty, move your body
Everybody make it rowdy that you can kick it with me
Hey girl I can see it to that you’re feelin' rude
Are you comin'?
'Cause you know that I aim to please
That’s the way it is (yeah)
Swing your fine self around to me
And I’ll make you see I feel alive
Tonight
Yeah oh yeah yeah
[CHORUS]
Baby, can we, get up, on it?
Better tell me, do you, want it?
[CHORUS x2]
they want us to tell them
what to burn into the groove
we're just gonna sit
and let them make the first move
the radio obsession
doesn't mean a thing to me
i don't like first impressions
and i don't watch much tv
i don't want to think about it
who, what, when, or where
i don't want to think about it
i don't really care
i don't want to think about
creating something new
i don't want to think about it
because i've got much better
things to do
i don't want to think about it
i don't want to see
i don't want to know
the kind of fool
they'll make of me
the public gets what they deserve
not what they demand
unless we all decide to be
a business, not a band
i don't want to think about it
who, what, when, or where
i don't want to think about it
i don't really care
i don't want to think about
creating something new
i don't want to think about it
because i've got much better
things to do - just like you
it's just an awful nightmare
and i get these awful headaches
and i can't get any sleep at night
i don't know what to do
i don't know where to turn
or what to think
i haven't got a clue
i don't know what's come over me
i'm getting dizzy
Why can't you release the fear?
Take a chance so you can be free
Get out of this hole shoveled deep by insanity
Why run and hide? Is it 'cause it threatens you?
Trash anger for something new
This fad has come and gone
Open your eyes...Open your mouth...
Open your ears...Don't hold yourself back
Open up and release the fear
It's time so open wide
Don't fight it let it ride
Detonate history
Destroy this legacy
Why live a lie? You're just getting screwed
Talk's cheap you're turning blue
Pull the plug and push on
Open your eyes...Open your mouth...
Open your ears...Don't hold yourself back
Open up and release the fear
Breakdown! Breakdown!
Why don't you breakdown!
The time is now! Can you taste it!
You've got to kill it or it kills you!
Open your eyes...Open your mouth...
(Coverdale/Moody)
Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul,
Didn't burn you to the bone
Do what the man says, take the money and run
But, I never saw the splendour
In stealing all your gold,
Taking all your silver
And doing what I'm told
I never saw the tears but I knew you cried for rhythm 'n' blues
Screaming like a wildcat I knew that I had nothing to lose
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul,
Didn't burn you to the bone
Do what the man says, take the money and run
But, I never saw the splendour
In stealing all your gold,
Taking all your silver
And doing what I'm told.
It's just a breakdown,
Breakdown,
Breakdown,
Breakdown
Shaking like a leaf in the wind see me blowing away
Never see me fall on the ground till I've had my say
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul,
Didn't burn you to the bone
Do what the man says, take the money and run
But, I never saw the splendour
In stealing all your gold,
Taking all your silver
And doing what I'm told
It's just a breakdown,
Breakdown,
Breakdown,
It's just a breakdown
Getting near the end, now I knew the time was right for a breakdown
Megaton surprise but your eyes never made it a shakedown
Shot you full of rock 'n' roll, couldn't make your soul,
Didn't burn you to the bone
Do what the man says, take the money and run
But, I never saw the splendour
In stealing all your gold,
Taking all your silver
And doing what I'm told
It's just a breakdown,
Breakdown,
Breakdown,
Connolly/Priest/Scott/Tucker
Yesterday I flew straight into tomorrow
Today I'm gonna lose
The ups and the downs
And the seeds that they sow
Blowin' hot and cold
Must be getting old
Everybody knows,
The cubes that you knock back
Won't reincarnate
You are trapped it's your fate
Very soon it's too late
So you give up and
Break down, stay down
Break down, low down
Break down, stay down
Stay down, break down
Head is playin' tricks
Colours are appearin'
But black and white don't mix
With stories I'm hearing
They're bringing me down
If you don't help me soon
I think I'm going crazy
I just broke up the room
Give me a piece of the
World that I know
Where the seeds that I sow
Are the minds that I blow
So I give up and
Break down, stay down
Break down, low down
Break down, stay down
Stay down, break down
I can give a damn 'bout just about anyone
Who can give a damn right back about me
I could go along with popular opinion
If ever it was all it was cracked up to be
I'm gonna breakdown
Because I really really feel I'm gonna breakdown
Because I really don't care
I could be content for life playing PlayStation
If ever a commercial really showed me the game
Have you ever wondered why Gary Oldman's
Speaking accents never twice the same
I'm gonna breakdown
Because I really really feel I gotta breakdown
Because I really don't care
For you I wrote symphonies
30,000 harmonies in tune
Tickled ebonies and ivories
But you were never listenin' at all to the things I say
The beats that I can drop like motherfucking Prince Paul, baby
Breakdown
Breakdown
Because I really don't care
Break it down
Yeah, I'm gonna breakdown
Because I really really feel I'm gonna breakdown
Because I really don't care
Breakdown
Because I really don't care
oh, what a lousy excuse for a car
one mile to go, but i can't push it that far
i think i've had enough
i think i'm giving up
saved all my money to buy a new guitar
then i got ripped off by the guy who fixed my car
i think i've had enough
i think i'm giving up
once again life's thrown me a curve, and it blew up right in my face
once again life's rattled my nerves
don't you see what i'm stuck in the place?
all because, you're giving me a ...breakdown
stuck on the side of the road
emotional over-load
he'll seek and destroy everything that i enjoy
but, i won't be the one he takes down
Life is crazy sometimes I feel like I'm just going out of my mind
Aint no pleasure in this pain that's why I hide all my fears inside
(I'm keepin it real, girl)
So you ask me what is wrong and I try my best---to explain
(this aint no love song)
It's just a temporary chemical imbalance messin with my brain
(and I'm not feeling alright, no no)
Chorus:
Stop the world from moving
Can't hang with this groovin'
It's the day to day thangs be buggin me (oh no)
like I'm havin a nervous breakdown
and it's kickin me in the worst way
Verse 2
Sometimes you go through it all the money in the world can't fix it
Sunny days seem so blue feels like I lost a good friend can't deal with
Anxiety attacking me through all my thoughts and my sanity
Finding it so hard to concentrate on love, life and creativity
Chorus
Vamp:
Gotta just live my life
Then I'm gonna feel alright
No stressin and no more strife
Open up the book you beat me with again
Read it off one sentence at a time
I'm tired of all the lines, convictions and your lies
What right do you have to point at me?
Well, I'm sitting alone thinking about it all over coffee
And still crowding my space
Are the things you still hold against me
You cannot save me
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to break up this love
Keep it together now, well, it's not the time to break
Read it all, no need for separating here
You see what you want and try to justify
All your little lines, convictions and your lies
What right do you have to point at me?
Well, I'm sitting alone thinking about it all over coffee
And still crowding my space
Are the things you still hold against me
You cannot save me
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to break up this love
Keep it together now, well, it's not the time to break
Open up the book you beat me with again
Read it off one sentence at a time
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to breakdown
Well, it's not the time to break up this love
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
[Chorus:]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Breakdown, shakedown again
Breakdown, over you
Breakdown, way down again
Breakdown, over you, over you
Just when our love appeared to be growing strong
And just when you believed that we both belonged
You catch me out a cheating and foolin' around
You find that I'm lyin'
I feel like I'm dyin'
Here I come cryin' again
Breakdown, shakedown again
Breakdown, over you
Breakdown, way down again
Breakdown, over you, over you
I put you through this whole affair before
I broke it up, you broke it up even more
Then I begged you to patch it all up again
Why did you listen to me?
You should have let it all be
You shouldn't put all your trust in me
Breakdown, shakedown again
Breakdown, over you
Breakdown, way down again
Breakdown, over you, over you
Breakdown, shakedown again
Breakdown, over you
Breakdown, way down again
Breakdown, over you, over you
Breakdown, way down again
Breakdown, over you
The sun is gone and the flowers rot
Words are spaces between us
And I should've been drowned in the rivers I found of token lost
And I should've been down when you made me insecure
So break me down, if it makes you feel right
And hate me now, if it keeps you all right
You can't break me down, if it takes all your might
'Cause I am so much more than meets the eye
And I'm the one you can never trust
'Cause wounds are ways to review us
And yet I could've tried and devoted my life to both of us
But what a waste of my time when the world we had was yours
So break me down, if it makes you feel right
And hate me now, if it keeps you all right
You can't break me down, if it takes all your might
'Cause I am so much more than all your lies
Hate me, break me down
So break me down
So break me down
So break me down, if it makes you feel right
And hate me now, if it keeps you all right
You can't break me down if it takes all your might
If I were tall enough, I'd look over my brother
My brother kicks some shit, salutes me like no other
And if for nothing else I really know my brother
If I were small enough I crawl up on my brother
I build a wall to protect myself
From any possible breakdown
So don't call me out to the playground
Downtown where I strut my sound
Big brother's gonna watch me
I build a wall to protect myself
From any possible breakdown
So don't call me out to the playground
Downtown where I strut my sound
Big brother's gonna watch me
If I were brave enough, I'd stand next to my brother
Shoulder to shoulder I would stand next to my brother
And if I fall apart he pull me by my shoulder
If I were tall enough, I'd crawl up on my brother
Bursting like a boil on the face of humanity
I need someone to lean on
So don't call me out to the playground
Downtown, where I strut my sound
Big brother's gonna watch me
So don't call me out to the playground
Downtown, where I strut my sound
Big brother's gonna watch me
I build a wall to protect myself
From any possible breakdown
You peel away the foreskin from my head
And laugh when I'm exposed
Come on
So don't call me out to the playground
Downtown, where I strut my sound
Big brother's gonna watch me
So don't call me out to the playground
Downtown, where I strut my sound
Big brother's gonna watch me
So don't call me out, so don't call me out
So don't call me out to the playground
Downtown, where I strut my sound
Big brother's gonna watch me
I build a wall to protect myself
Breakdown,breakdown,breakdown, breakdown
I've got this feeling that I'm losing my head
I'm kissing something and I'm starting to sweat
Though it was so fun when '' someone
When you're deep inside that you are the one
It makes you emotions that I'm feeling so bad
The things I do are making you mad
And I'm not '' I'm black all inside
And now I'm kissing as to get you the night
And the thing had started with a kiss
But I still taste you here on my lips
Whenever you're around I feel all right
It's when you make me something kills the light
I breakdown, I breakdown, I breakdown, breakdown
I know what I've done that you should be gone
I still believe I'm still holding it strong
I need to get back; I'll be your doormat
Cause I know I just set the ''..
And the thing had started with a kiss
But I still taste you here on my lips
Whenever you're around I feel allright
It's when you make me something kills the light
I breakdown,I breakdown, I breakdown,breakdown
It's so good ,yeah,it tastes so good,yeah,
It feels so good,yeah,
There's something else there
You're so good,yeah,you taste so good,yeah
You feel so good ,yeah
There's something else there
And the thing had started with a kiss
But I still taste you here on my lips
Whenever you're around I feel all right
It's when you make me something kills the light
I breakdown,breakdown,I breakdown!
Breakdown,I breakdown,breakdown,
I breakdown,breakdown,breakdown
It's so good, yeah, it tastes so good,yeah
It's so good,yeah,it's something else there
Breakdown
I can't believe it
(1st Verse)
Good evening ladies and gents, close and distant fam
Let me break it down for ya'll exactly who I am...(CAV)
That brotha straight off of Myrtle Ave
That dude that make the other dude say that's my man, (CAV)
It ain't nuttin' I want I can't have
The haters know it's real and that's why they mad
They struggle so hard while I just lay back
They sound under pressure, sweaty and straight wack
I rock like this because I ain't that, (CAV)
Tell the players I'm taking the game back...
Matta fact tell the coaches, the GMs, and owners
Shut down the stadiums, it's ova
I make the cat's in the back draw closer
Get the comp choked up like white folks on Oprah
Yeah you dope, but (CAV) is more doper
Mo skill, mo style than mo folkas
I hit the lab with good shit to smoke up
And tell the sound man where I wanna go from
Blow up, skit sheet across the notepad
School em' all from the drop out to post grads
What history book you do or don't have
There's only two eras of rap, pre and post CAV
Now you know that
Stop the train, there's no place for the game left to go at
(BREAK)
CAV is my name but you can call me, (CAV)
It's all the same abbreviated or whole
Shout it out so it don't be a secret to folk it go, (CAV)
Short for Cavee but I'm not from Cali
I'm from the rotten apple, dirty streets and alleys
Bed-Stuy Brooklyn doin'it exactly, Get at me!!!
(2nd Verse)
Holla!!...Like Missy and Ja Rule
Ain't a crowd in the world that CAV cannot move
Hot dude, cats was thinkin' it's not true
But come front row at show, I got proof
I went from sellin' candy in junior high school
To servin' spoony g for the fiends, to gnaw to
Got sent upstate on bus, (Not cool)
In the yard thinkin' damn should've listen to ma duke
Come home in 99, what the fuck I'm gonna do
I won't move bundles, I got a new hustle
I quit pie baking, started rhyme makin
Buildin' up my rep to be one of the five greatest
And I ain't saying CAV the best nigga out there
But until he appear, I'm sittin'in his chair
And I'ma need a few moments just to get in ya'll ear
To make you forget the Duke was eva even here
I got two words for the world, BE PREPARED!!
I got three words for your girl, DON'T BE SCARED!!!
And when they ask where the real hip-hop, IT'S OVA HERE!!!
And when they ask where Brooklyn at, HOLD YA EAR!!!!
It's like YEAH!!!!, Chris Antione Vashon
Capricorn hit em' off with the classic bong and then I'm gone...
You found the the soujla
But I’m a man in a piece
I fight for your love
They try to take it me from you
Then protect your heart so you never be hurt again
But it’s a sacrifice cause I’m an old fashion working man
Witch means I won’t be home like who you use to
On the phone like who you use to
Won’t be long for see you too

And you never disappear, you showed me how much you care

To make you realize that life’s just a context and you have been to take my price
We live with no fears
And you never disappear, you showed me how much you care

Then you help me down for years,
The hardest part from here it’s when you cry

I'd build a ladder to the moon
There I'd carve your name
If it would brighten up this room
But you know that anyway
I can't be the rock
Not today
Sometimes i wanna pop
Sometimes i wanna say
I'd like to breakdown, but I can't find the time
You're all lookin' to me
To keep it in line
I hope i can keep it in line
Sometimes i slow it down
To hear what I haven't heard
And when the darkness rolls around
I scream out the words
His picture's on my wall
He looks about my age
I wonder if he ever broke at all
I wonder if he ever had to say
I'd like to breakdown, but I can't find the time
They're all lookin' to me
To keep it in line
And I'm gonna keep it in line
It's gonna work itself out
It always does
At the last drop of doubt
Just like it never was
repeat 2nd chorus
You threw me out on the sidewalk last night,
You dumped my clothes out the window too.
I threw rocks at the glass panes and wood,
We need to talk I needed a word with you.
We made up on the couch on the floor,
But you told me I needed to lose
A few pounds on the body I loved,
I went to work and I talked with a man I grew up with.
He said,
"Oh, a sad sight you are, you are slowly unraveling me.
Oh, no tears on a Tuesday you need better than what he can give you.
Better than what he can give you."
He held me tight for longer than normal,
I cuddled close, I couldn't believe it.
He whispered words in my ear it was nice,
But it wasn't the same when he called me the wrong name.
I ran off down the street down the corner,
And he caught me in his arms.
And once again he delivered a comfort,
A need I had known ever since I was young.
He said,
"Oh, a sweet sight you are, you are slowly unraveling me.
Oh, I 'd kill for your heart. What a strange man indeed who would lose you.
A strange man indeed who could lose you."
Oh, a sweet sight you are, you are slowly undoing me.
Oh, I'd kill for your heart. What a strange man indeed who could lose you.
If I seem a little jittery I can't restrain myself
I'm falling into fancy fragments - can't contain myself
I'm gonna breakdown - breakdown yes
Now I can stand austerity but it gets a little much
when there's all these livid things that you never get to touch
I'm gonna breakdown ...
I feel me brain like porridge coming out of me ears
and I was anticipating reverie
I've taken leave of me senses - and I'm in arrears
my legs buckle over - I'm living on my knees
I'm gonna breakdown ...
Whatever makes me tick it takes away my concentration
sets my hands a-trembling - gives me frustration
I'm gonna breakdown ...
So I hear that two is company for me it's plenty trouble
though my double thoughts are clearer now that I am seeing double
I'm gonna breakdown ...
Oh mum can I grow out of what's too big for me?
I'll give up that ghost before it gives up me
I wander loaded as a crowd - a nowhere wolf of pain
Living next to nothing - my nevermind remains
Bullshit
it's all that i hear
it seems that every time somebody's
talking, its coming out their rear
tension
no matter how hard i try
it just keeps keeps building building
up up inside
shut up
i've said it twice this time
you're babbling on & on & on like you
committed a crime
breakdown
you're fucking at it again
you're telling me your life story
don't mean to offend
just get to the point and give me the
message you're trying to send
welcome to the part of the song where
were gonna break it down for ya
settle the score tell ya more
start to explore
the deep down core
of intoxication chatter
I seem to be getting the feeling that
this talk is all about you
never stopping for a breath
i don't even have a clue
i'm not even paying attention so i'm
bound to misconstrue
and when i say these words do they
even get through?
In your life you seem to have it all
You seem to have control
But deep within your soul
You're losing it
You never took the time
Assume that you're to blame
You think that you're insane
Won't you spare me
I know the breakdown
Everything is gonna shake now someday
I know the breakdown
Tell me again am i awake now maybe
You can find the reason that no one else is living this way
Yeah your lies
Your world is built around
Two faces to a clown
The voices in your head
Think there's four pawns down
Well in this unity
Fate has found the need
So you better check yourself
Before you check out
If you find yourself
Then you might believe
Then within yourself
You just might conceive
You can find the reason that (you can find the reason that)
You Fuckin' Piece Of Shit!
Steal me. Take me I am more than this.
Cause I'm feeling terrified It's obvious
So I look into your eyes and all I see
Breakdown coming on to me as I wonder just how you want me to be.
See me. Lost and gone its obvious, As i see you scarred at your self confidence
As I look into you're eyes I know I'm to far gone to recognize the weakness

Gonna breakdown Just like me
Here I am, here I stand
Trying to scrape up another breath, but there's none left for me to
take
You can't breathe, you can sleep, you can't sleep
And god it hurts to even think of trying to eat
And now you're face down in a bathroom stall, can't hold it down can't
hold it down
Break down, break down for all you gave
Break down, break down everything
Reminding you of what you had
Break down, break down for all the pain
Break down, break down everything
Yeah just break down everything
Yeah just break down everything you own
Don't pick up the phone and call
Cause the other line, is another line again
Break down, for everything you had
Break down, cause now it is in the past
Breakdown ... Life isn't easy
Everyone pushing so hard
I hear them laughing
I can see the red line
Now I'm on the red line
Breakdown, Breakdown, Breakdown
Breakdown ... cold sweat in the middle of the night
Breakdown ... I'm so confused
Why are they pushing so hard?
Why are they laughing?
I can see the red line
Now I'm on the red line
Breakdown, Breakdown, Breakdown
I'm okay ... a little love and it all goes away
Got a terrible heat inside of me
In a world of ice is where I wanna to be
A fire is melting my soul away
Burning inside, it's my own private hell
I just feel like I'm dancing in the fire
My head seems to burn and I am loosing control (yes I do)
Breakdown, breakdown
It seems that im drowning in a flood
Breakdown, breakdown
All my nerves and senses tell me to stop
It's in my brain!
It's in my brain!
There is no more light, darkness surrounds my brain
Reality and dream seem to become the same
I feel that I will never be the same again
Leaving this world as a drunk and dirty man
I just feel like I'm dancing in the fire
My head seems to burn and I am loosing control (yes I do)
Breakdown, breakdown
It seems that im drowning in a flood
Breakdown, breakdown
All my nerves and senses tell me to stop
It's in my brain!
It's in my brain!
It's in my brain!
Everything's still the same, mind in the pouring rain
starting to be a pain, could I :.
spinning right out of sight, out of the dreadful light
feeling like :. and shout, you can't fix it
Falling to pieces hey, my name will save the day
:. what they say, hang ups let down
wish I could clean it out, wish I was out of sight
dead end is coming up, one more :.
[Chorus:]
Breakdown, I could need another getaway
Breakdown, are we always gonna stay the same
Breakdown, I could use another brand new day
Caught by a million rules, you haven't got a clue
what I am going through, smashing adults
I have you figured out, know what you're all about
I got the picture right, I can't stand it
[Chorus x2]
that's where I'll keep away
Wasn't it long ago?
And wasn't it on a New England coast?
And wasn't it the standard people praying to
The Son and the Father and the Holy Ghost?
One nation over God, is that what we've now become?
The founding fathers left a noble legacy
To their sons and their daughters, to their sons and their daughters
And look at what we've done, and look at what we've done
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
As we learn to bite the hand that tries to feed us
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
If we say that we are free who will believe us?
If we breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, break
See the powder on the glass
See the pillow on the street
See the charter of a modern love
With no obligations or promises to meet
Hear the fear of disease, hear the baby never born
And hear a people crying out
"Somebody save us, oh, please somebody save us
From what we're headed for, from what we're headed for"
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
As we learn to bite the hand that tries to feed us
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
If we say that we are free who will believe us?
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
As we learn to bite the hand that tries to feed us
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
As we learn to bite the hand that tries to feed us
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
If we say that we are free who will believe us?
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
As we learn to bite the hand that tries to feed us
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
If we say that we are free who will believe us?
If we breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
If we say that we are free who will believe us?
If we breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
How many hits to the head will it take ‘til you relize it hurts?
Does it really make you feel all that great so what’s it really worth
I don’t want to see you go down
I don’t want to see you breakdown
I don’t want to see you fall (down)
It’s in your face you can’t deny it
I know where you’ve been and where you’ll go tonight
Running a race everyone loses so why run at all
When we were young it was so much fun smoking and drinking the boredom away
You lost the thrill so you upped the ante but I wasn’t so quick to play You lost your youth you lost your passion now it seems you don’t care at all
You built a house out of playing cards how long ‘till it falls
Don’t you call me a hypocrite we both know I like to have my fun too But nothing’s gotten a hold on me like the shit that possesses you
It’s gotten so sad the way you depend on something other than yourself to make your life fun
The hardest part the tragedy is that you don’t see the damange done.
It's all right if you love me
It's all right if you don't
'Cause, I'm not afraid of you running away honey
I get the feeling you won't
There's no sense in pretending
Your eyes give you away
Something inside you, is feeling like I do
We've said all there is the say
Breakdown, honey go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown, honey take me tonight
Breakdown, I'm standin' here can't you see?
Breakdown, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right
It's all right if you love me
And it's all right if you don't
'Cause, I'm not afraid of you running away honey
I get the feeling you won't
It's okay, if you must go
'Cause, I'll understand if you don't
You say goodbye right now, I'll still survive somehow
Why should we let this drag on?
Breakdown, honey go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown, honey take me to the night
Breakdown, I'm standin' here can't you see
Breakdown, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right, baby
Breakdown, honey go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown, honey take me to the night
Breakdown, I'm standin' here can't you see
Breakdown, it's all right, it's all right
Breakdown, honey go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown, honey take me to the night
Breakdown, I'm standin' here can't you see
Breakdown, it's all right, it's all right
Breakdown, ohh baby
Breakdown, ohh baby
Ohh baby, breakdown
Breakdown
Breakdown
Breakdown
