Break Me Down

New Lyrics

 

 

You don’t need to be blamed for anything

Your mother needs to be the one failing

I’ve come here to meet you across the line

It’s up to you to leave the rest behind.

 

-And when you get close enough to see me

your back starts sweating ever so sweetly

The brightness of your smile lights up my face

You always save me from that lonely place. -(Pre-chorus)

 

-Don’t shake me cause I’m thinking of you.

Don’t wake me up, I'm dreaming of you.

Don’t take my eyes, I’m seeing in you.

Don’t break me down, I'll hold onto you. -(Chorus)

 

You don’t need to be thrown in the spotlight

Your father shouldn't tell you to act right

I’ve come here just to whisper in your ear

You shouldn’t fear because you know I’m near  

 

-Pre-chorus-

-Chorus-

 

-Now they’re shaking me, waking me, taking me, and breaking me down

But I’m still thinking and dreaming and seeing and holding you down- (2x)

 

So don’t shake me, I'm thinking of you

don’t wake me up, I'm dreaming of you

don’t take me now , I'm seeing in you

don’t break me down, I'm holding you down

 

For I’m still thinking and dreaming and seeing and holding you down 

I’m still thinking and dreaming and seeing and I’m still holding you down
