[Verse 1]Listen to me closely as the story unfoldsThis could be the saddest story even been toldI used to want the house with the biggest poolReminiscing now I just feel like a fool[Chorus]Keep breaking me down, down, downKeep breaking me down, down, downKeep breaking me down, down, downKeep breaking me down, down, down[Verse 2]I used to throw the party at the New Year's EveFirst one intoxicated, last one to leaveWaking up in places that you would never believeGive me back the time, you can keep the memories[Chorus][Bridge]Every book I've read said that I would meet somebody like youWhenever I was sorry, so sorry for the things I used to doA journal full of numbers that I used to go through(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) all behind me now, all because of you[Chorus]You keep breaking me, you keep breaking me downI don't wanna, wanna go noDon't wanna go down, down, down[Verse 4]Baby, baby see there's a door that you can walk throughWhere there used to be a wallI don't care, it's cool as long as you catch me baby(Catch me when I fall) If there's ever a fallCloser to the breakdown, the closer we get
