The Breakdown

[Verse 1]
You know it's always been hard for me
I guess it's easier if I don't see
That you were never that innocent
And I was much more forgiving then

[Chorus]
But then again, who wouldn't be?
All at once, see I was free
I was preparing for the breakdown
Preparing for the breakdown
I was preparing for the breakdown
Preparing for the breakdown

[Verse 2]
It was the night of the fireworks
When I saw that you didn't hurt
And all your friends say you're doing well
They didn't have much to tell

[Chorus]
But then again, why wouldn't they?
I realized that I couldn't stay
I was preparing for the breakdown
Preparing for the breakdown
I was preparing for the breakdown
Preparing for the breakdown

[Bridge]
How nice of you to take your time
Out of sight, out of mind

[Chorus]
I was preparing for the breakdown
Preparing for the breakdown
I was preparing for the breakdown
Preparing for the breakdown

[Outro]
That you were never that innocent
And I was much more forgiving then
