Now I know I can handle this   I'll close my mouth and clench my fist   I've lived this day in a thousand ways   But there's a flaw to add to your list      Go on and squeeze a little more   'Cause if you scream I'll just ignore you   But I've rehearsed this scene in a million dreams   You're getting closer to my core      I'm so damn frustrated   Losing breath and now I'm shaking   Gotta keep myself from breaking down   Someone get me out      (Chorus)   Tear don't you fall, eyes dont you cry   Need to get me round this corner   I can't break down, break down   Pride don't cave in, head don't fall off   While I'm open you can read me   I can't break down, break down   Break down, break down      Blocked it out for long enough   Got really good at playing rough now   I've been prepared and not really cared   But being brave is getting tough      Chin don't start to quiver   Hands now don't you shiver   Gotta keep myself from breaking down   Someone get me out   Someone let me out      (Chorus)   Tear don't you fall, eyes dont you cry   Need to get me round this corner   I can't break down, break down   Pride don't cave in, head don't fall off   While I'm open you can read me   I can't break down, break down   Break down, break down      You smile like the cat who's got the cream   I'm vulnerable and I know you see me   There's so much I wanna say   But this lump in my throat makes me walk away   Away   Away      Tear do't you fall, eyes don't you cry   Pride don't cave in, head don't let go      (Chorus)   Tear don't you fall, eyes dont you cry   Need to get me round this corner   I can't break down, break down   Pride don't cave in, head don't fall off   While I'm open you can read me   I can't break down, break down   Break down, break down    x2 (to fade)
