"The Breakdown" lyrics

"The Breakdown"

I'm sick and tired of
Feeling sick and tired all the time
And all my worst fears
Coming to mind
Waking up over my head
I'm in deep
I made my own bed

Everything feels
Like a giant regret
When you're up to your ears
In heartache and debt
I took a shower
Stared at the drain
Wiped the mirror
And there was my face

But freedom lies
On the other side

Young blood
Look in my eyes
You're a fool not to cry
You're crazy not to break down

I dabbled in vain
And I got my heart broke
I talked a good game
But I must've misspoke
Silver Lake
Took its toll
My shiny things
They all got old

But freedom lies
On the other side
When you break your dreams
And you lose your mind

Young blood
Look in my eyes
You're a fool not to cry
You're crazy not to break down
This life
Is full of surprises
The sun also rises
You're crazy not to break down

Are you ready?
Are you ready?
For the breakdown?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
For the breakdown?

Are you ready?
Are you ready?
For the breakdown?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
For the breakdown?

I don't wanna be
The bitter bad guy
I wanna light a fire
And watch the sparks fly
Waking up
In the bed I made
Gotta clean this room
And get on my way

Young blood
Look in my eyes
You're a fool not to cry
You're crazy not to break down
This life
Is full of surprises
And the sun also rises
You're crazy not to breakdown

Young blood
Look in my eyes
You're crazy not to break down
This life
Is full of surprises
You're crazy not to live now

I'm sick and tired of
Being sick and tired all the time
All my worst fears
Coming to mind
Waking up over my head
I'm in deep
I made my own bed
