the breakout
Why do I think there's nobody out there No one who wants me and no one who knows I wait in this place and no one can see me After all this time could I be so alone I walk through this old town and still feel so lonely The winds play sad songs high in the trees The sun never shines this deep in the forest And I in the darkness or is the darkness in me I wanna break I wanna break out I wanna break I wanna break out I want to taste the tears of a lover Warm as my blood as wet as a kiss But it's only dark rain that falls in this old town Old as my memory and as cold as my lips I wanna break I wanna break out I don't wanna fake it I want to break out And when I feel lonely And when I feel lonely You fly me to the sun Above this old town From the top of a tower I forget about living I forget about pain At the edge of the platform At the edge of a heartbeat Above this old town I flew away I wanna break I wanna break out I don't wanna fake it I want to break out I wanna break I wanna break out I want to break I want to break out
