Mariah Carey - Breakdown
You called yesterday to basically say
That you care for me but that you're just not in love
Immediately, i pretended to be feeling similarly
And led you to believe i was o.k
To just walk away from the one thing
That's unyielding and sacred to me
★ chorus: mariah carey ★
Well, i guess i'm trying to be nonchalant 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 guise 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 that i'm suffering
So i wear my disguise 'til i go home at night
And turn down all the lights and then i break down and cry
★ verse 2: mariah carey ★
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
★ chorus: mariah carey ★
Well, i guess i'm trying to be nonchalant 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 guise 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 that i'm suffering
So i wear my disguise 'til i go home at night
And turn down all the lights and then i break down and cry
★ chorus: mariah carey ★
Well, i guess i'm trying to be nonchalant 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 guise 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 that i'm suffering
So i wear my disguise 'til i go home at night
And turn down all the lights and then i break down and cry
★ chorus: mariah carey ★
Well, i guess i'm trying to be nonchalant about it

Her album Daydream (1995) made music history with the record-breaking sixteen-week run of the single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men.

Following the film's poor reception, Carey was bought out of her contract for $50 million. She then signed with Island Records in 2002 and made a successful comeback with The Emancipation of Mimi (2005), which included the hit single "We Belong Together."
