I Break Down

I try to go on, I try to be strong

I try to be the one to stand tall

I try to impress you, try to make you think

Nothing can hurt me, I can take it all

When the sky turns grey and the clouds bring thunder

I hold up a shelter for you to hide under

When the rain begins to fall and my shelter hits the ground

Then I'm the one

Chorus:

I break down

They say in the world to make it

You've got to be strong

Day after day gets harder

To hold on

But sometimes I get sad

And my smiles turn to frowns, then it's my turn

Chorus:

To break down

When you reach out and cry to me

I hold on, internally

But sometimes I get sad

And my smiles turn to frowns, then I'm the one

Chorus:

I break down
