Because you're so amusing
I think i'm losing my mind
You think you're so amazing
You seem to ...?
Maybe you're just [bad word] and crazy
 
Any time i take a breath and try to say
You just get up in my face but not today
How about enough of the [bad word] that i can take
I've got one request

Don't break me down
Don't break me down
Can't break me down

Everyday you've got to lift up your head (lift up your head)
Everyday you've got to lift up your head and breathe
 
Because it irritated me
minute feels like an hour
Is it the code (?) of the smoke
That makes you look like such a joke
 
Every time i take a breath and try to say
You just get up in my face but not today
I'm tryin' my best
 
Don't break me down
Don't break me down
Can't break me down
 
Everyday you've got to lift up your head (lift up your head)
Everyday you've got to lift up your head and breathe
 
Everyday you've got to open your eyes (open your eyes)
You've got to realize that you're still alive
Alive
 
Don't break me down
Don't break me down
Don't break me down
Don't break me down
