'Cause you're so amusing
I think I'm losing my mind
Think you're so amazing, scintillating
Maybe you're just drunk and crazy

Every time, I take a breath and try to say
You just get up in my face but not today
Had about enough of the shit that I can take
I 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

'Cause you irritate me
A minute feels like an hour
Is it the coke or 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
Had about enough of the shit that I can take
I'm trying 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)
Gotta realise 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
