When the whirlwind of noise surrounds and gets intense
And when words can't hide their anger or intent
I feel it in my bones and in my head
Can't make sense of what is said
Ready for the take down
Headed for a breakdown
Fear has me backed
Against these walls that
I follow and pace
Time moves
In and out of phase
Of everything that I face
I feel it in my bones
They rattle and shake
Can't find a trace of
What it takes
To stop this take down
Can't stop this breakdown!
Welcome to my scene
A place that's in-between
Where squares fit the round
Some affectionately call it
My breakdown!
When I feel the pressure mounting
And my hands begin to clutch
I reach my limit of pain and I've had enough
It feels good to pound on tables and chairs
And feel the frenzy start to wear
Breakdown this take down
Gotta stop this breakdown!
Welcome to my scene
A place that's in-between
Where squares fit the round
It'll never be
Never be more than this
More than this
Never be more than this
Never, never, never, never
Oh, a breakdown
