Title: Breakdown



Breakdown....breakdow n.
You're headed for a breakdown.(Repeat)

Chasin', runnin', tryin' to get.
What are you strivin' for, just what is it?
Workin' for the world 16 hours a day.
So numb you can't feel youself slippin' away.

Breakdown....breakdown.
Yo u're headed for a breakdown.(Repeat)

Spinin' round and round in your little rats cage.
Tryin' to grab the cheese, you can't face your rage.
Everyone seems so happy and have everything.
Wanting, not knowing what ambition can bring.

Breakdown!(Chasin' after money)
Breakdown!(Runnin' for the honey)
Breakdown!(Kissin' up to the world)
Breakdown!(Not knowin' they think you're a squirrel)
Breakdown!(You're soul is meltin' fast)
Breakdown!(Don't know how long you'll last)

Sheer breakdown of the spirit. You're almost gone for good. Still time to get back near it. Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, you can make it through!

    I've been here

    Hurt.

    [Verse 1:]
    I try to hurt myself to see if I still feel, but I don't feel a thing.
    I stand still like a concrete statue,
