The Breakdown

Lyrics

[RILEY, spoken] Now, if you're all done yelling at each other, can we please finally get some work done? We have a bright future here, can't we just put the past behind us and move on? [sung] We are the soul of the school The pride in the name The heart and the flame Our words are pure inspiration Years of creation changing the nation [KATE, spoken] Riley, maybe we should skip the pep rally [RILEY, spoken] Why? I'm the best I've ever been. This was the only thing I - we - wanted [sung] D-E-F-E-N-S-E Tigers go for victory Stomp, stomp, clap, spin Tigers fight and Tigers win Regionals is almost here So stop complaining Do the cheer [KATE, spoken] We're not complaining. We're dealing with the death of our friends [RILEY] No more time gets wasted If you're gonna have a dream, you have to chase it Or just as you lose steam, they go and take it R.I.P. the 'worst team ever' [CAIRO, spoken] Riley-- [RILEY] Do you want to settle Do you want to sit back And watch life go by Do you want to settle Or do you want to fly This time, I will be stronger This time, I last longer This time, I won't waste it I won't waste it I won't waste it Captain of the team, would you please come to our party? Oh my god your hair looks great You turned out so well [CAIRO, spoken] Riley, can I have the key? [RILEY, spoken] No, Cai, you can't [CAIRO, spoken] We all want to go to Regionals, just give me the key- [RILEY] Who stayed on track when the world was on attack And when girls don't have your back You have to c-c-c-c-cut 'em It was me who decided We could be so much more Than they could see If I didn't do it What, what, what, what, what would we have done? We would be no one Please forgive me for doing what's best for you Riley is a wallflower Make this easier
