Verse
F#m7You called yesterday G#m7
To Amaj9basically say
That you F#m7care for me
G#m7But that you're Amaj9just not in love
F#m7Immediately I G#m7pretended
To be feeling Amaj9similarly
And led you to believe it was F#m7o.k
To G#m7just walk away from the Amaj9one thing
That's unyielding and sacred to me
Chorus
F#m7Well I guess I'm trying to be
G#m7Nonchalant about it
Amaj7And I'm going to extremes to prove
I'm fine without you
F#m7But in reality G#m7I'm slowly losing my mind Amaj7
Underneath a disguise of a smile
Gradually I'm dying inside
F#m7Friends ask me how I feel
G#m7And I lie convincingly
Amaj9Cause I don't want to reveal
The fact that I'm suffering
F#m7So I wear my disguise G#m7
Till I go home at night Amaj9
And turn down all the lights
And then I break down and cry
(Mariah:)
Bridge
So what do you do
When somebody you're devoted to
Suddenly just stops loving you
And it seems they haven't got a clue
Of the pain that rejection is putting you through
Do you cling to your pride
And sing "I will survive"
Do you lash out and say "How dare you leave this way?"
Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away
(Wish:)
Yeah c'mon yeah c'mon c'mon
Chorus
Well I guess I'm trying to be
G#m7Nonchalant about it
And I'm going to extremes to prove
I'm fine without you
But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
Underneath the disguise of a smile
Gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel
And I lie convincingly
Cause I don't want to reveal
The fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise
Till I go home at night
And turn down all the lights
And then I break down and cry
(Wish:)
Rap
Better break it down
Or if for your lady
Everyday the situation is on my mind
Tryin' to break me down
But I won't let it
Forget it (forget it)
(Krayzie:)
I'll be feelin' like it gonna break me down
Turnin' me around
Stressin' me out
I'm thinkin' it gonna get out
And let me release some stress (stress)
(Wish:)
Don't ever wanna feel no pain (pain)
Hoping for the sun
But it looks like rain (rain rain rain)
Oh I just wanna maintain
(Krayzie:)
Yeah I'm feelin' precious yo
But nevertheless
Krayzie won't fall
Sober is headin near (near)
Chorus
