Alanis Morissette – I Can't Break Down lyrics

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 don't 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 don't 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 don't 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) Explain Request ×
