General Information

Written by: S. Morgan, D. Stewart and J. Humphrey

Breakdown is the third track and the third single from Seether's third studio album, Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces. Shaun stated that this song is about former girlfriend Amy Lee and their past relationship. However, it is not a reply to Evanescence's Call Me When You're Sober.

The music video features Troy McLawhorn, who was a full-time guitarist in Seether at the time.

Lyrics

The sun is gone and the flowers rot
Words are spaces between us
And I should've been drowned in the rivers I've found of token lost
And I should've been down when you made me insecure

So break me down if it makes you feel right
And hate me now if it keeps you alright
You can break me down if it takes all your might
'Cause I'm so much more than meets the eye

And I'm the one you can never trust
'Cause wounds are ways to reveal us
And yeah I could have tried and devoted my life to both of us
But what a waste of my time when the world we had was yours

So break me down if it makes you feel right
And hate me now if it keeps you alright
You can break me down if it takes all your might
'Cause I'm so much more than all your lies

Hate me, break me down
So break me down
So break me down
So break me down if it makes you feel right
And hate me now if it keeps you alright
You can break me down if it takes all your might
'Cause I'm so much more than meets the eye
