Lyrics

Breakdown

I'm always one step away from the railing
I try to hold myself back
I'm always one step away from the feeling
I could snap just like that

Self-destruction, don't you love it?
How you never rise above it?
Get so high off the lows
'Til I let go

I'm always up for a breakdown
The pressure's building now
That beat in my brain
It's keeping me sane
Make it loud
I'm always up

I'm always hiding the weight that I carry
Trying to hold my head up
When it drops
Don't it make you wanna go hard?
Let your body let go 'til you hit the floor
That's what we're waiting for
(That's what we're waiting for)

Self-destruction, don't you love it?
How you never rise above it?
Get so high off the lows
'Til I let go

I'm always up for a breakdown
The pressure's building now
That beat in my brain
It's keeping me sane
Make it loud

I think I'm ready to lose myself
Can't be the only one
Turn down my problems
'Til they're forgotten
Fade out
I'm always up for a breakdown

Some days you about to blow
The heavier the better
Yeah, the lower we go
Drop A, pretty criminal
Throwdown therapy
Yeah, let's go

Some days you about to blow
The heavier the better
Yeah, the lower we go
Drop A, pretty criminal
Throwdown therapy

I'm always up for a breakdown
The pressure's building now
That beat in my brain
It's keeping me sane
Make it loud

I think I'm ready to lose myself
Can't be the only one
Turn down my problems
'Til they're forgotten
Fade out
I'm always up for a breakdown
I'm always up for a breakdown
