[00:00.43]Lyrics by:Mariah Carey/Steven Jordan/Anthony Henderson/Charles Scruggs
[00:01.06]Composed by:Mariah Carey/Steven Jordan/Anthony Henderson/Charles Scruggs
[00:01.68]Krayzie Bone:
[00:01.81]Break-breakdown
[00:05.38]Steady breaking me on down
[00:08.92]Break-breakdown
[00:12.43]Steady breaking me on down
[00:15.95]Break-breakdown
[00:19.46]Steady breaking me on down
[00:23.06]Break-breakdown
[00:26.63]Steady breaking me on down
[00:28.21]Mariah Carey:
[00:28.50]You called yesterday to basically say
[00:35.06]That you care for me but that you're just not in love
[00:42.20]Immediately I pretended to be feeling similarly
[00:47.42]And led you to believe I was okay
[00:50.64]To just walk away from the one thing
[00:54.40]That's unyielding and sacred to me
[00:56.88]Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it
[01:00.31]And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
[01:03.87]But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
[01:07.57]Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside
[01:10.39]Underneath the guise of smile
[01:11.10]Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
[01:14.47]'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that that I'm suffering
[01:17.94]So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
[01:21.96]And turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry
[01:26.93]Mariah Carey/Krayzie Bone:
[01:27.83]So what do you do when somebody you're devoted to
[01:31.96]Suddenly just stops loving you and it seems they haven't got a clue
[01:37.46]Of the pain that rejection is putting you through
[01:42.01]Do you cling to your pride and sing "I will survive"
[01:44.63]Gotta get control and roll roll roll on
[01:46.15]Do you lash out and say "How dare you leave this way"
[01:48.40]Gotta get control and roll roll roll on
[01:51.65]Gotta get control and roll roll roll on
[01:53.90]Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away
[01:56.81]Gotta get control and roll roll roll on
[01:57.08]Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it
[02:00.20]Break-breakdown
[02:00.52]And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
[02:03.43]Steady breaking me on down
[02:04.08]But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
[02:07.52]Losing my mind
[02:07.99]Break-breakdown
[02:08.24]Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside
[02:10.70]Under the smile
[02:11.08]Steady breaking me on down
[02:11.70]Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
[02:13.78]How do I feel
[02:14.31]Break-breakdown
[02:14.60]'Cause I don't want to reveal the fact that that I'm suffering
[02:17.81]Steady breaking me on down
[02:18.45]So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
[02:21.59]Break-breakdown
[02:21.86]And turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry
[02:25.02]Steady breaking me on down

[02:51.57]Kicking me around stressing me out
[02:53.17]I think you better go and get out
[02:54.47]And let me release some stress
[02:56.50]Wish Bone:
[02:56.78]Don't ever wanna feel no pain
[02:58.59]Hoping for the sun but it looks like rain
[03:01.83]Lord I just wanna maintain
[03:03.25]Krayzie Bone:
[03:03.55]Yeah I'm feeling pressures you all

[03:18.25]But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
