Look at the man with the fancy dress
He ain't go no time, does his line
Feels 'bout his best
Look at his face now life isn't fair
Ain't had no sleep, worrying late
About his dispair
Too tired to fight, rolls back again
Goes home at four
Wife locks the door, won't let him in
Sleeps in the car most every night
Up at dawn, quickly gone, avoid a fight
Breakin' down
Breakin' down
Take me away, don't spare me
Breakin' down
Breakin' down
It crossed his mind about suicide
But throws away the plan
Can't cut his hand, he's afraid to die
He's a desperate man, can't find a way
In his mind can't stand no more
Can't find a cure
Looks in the mirror, can't find himself
Looks away, can't face the day
Don't like himself
Then comes the day to end it all
A sacrifice for misery, he takes his life
Breakin' down
Breakin' down
Breakin' down
Breakin' down
It crossed his mind about suicide
But throws away the plan
Can't cut his hand, he's afraid to die
A desperate man, can't find a way
Blew his mind, found no cure
He was no more
Looks in the mirror, can't find himself
Looks away, can't face the day
Didn't like himself
Then comes the day to end it all
A sacrifice for misery, he takes his life
Breakin' down
Breakin' down
Breakin' down
Breakin' down
Breakin' down.....
He ain't go no time, does his line
