Lyrics

Day 2, What a parade, I don’t know what to say
The people come and go all night and day
I feel nothing, and then I laugh or cry til I’m spent
A coaster ride, I’m screaming inside
But I’m not gonna break, I’m not gonna break today

Day 2, I cannot move, pajama afternoon
Dishes and bottle pile up to touch the sky
There’s nothing that can be done, There’s a hole in the sun
It wont go down, it’s stuck in my throat
But I’m not gonna break, I’m not gonna break today
I’m not gonna break, No, I’m not gonna break today

When there’s nothing left to hold on to, you got to break down to break through
When there’s nothing left to hold on to, you got to break down to break through

Please, please, please pass it on – I don’t want to be alone
But I don’t know how to reach out to you
Ever since you’ve been gone, I try and try to move on
It’s logical, but not doable

But I’m not gonna break, I’m not gonna break today
But I’m not gonna break, I’m not gonna break today
When there’s nothing left to hold on to, You got to break down to break through
When there’s nothing left to hold on to, You got to break down to break through
and i’m not gonna break, I’m not gonna break today
