[Intro:][×2]
Da da da'd da da
Da da da'd da da
Da da da'd da da da da
[Verse 1:]
Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreamin' of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray
Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I prayed I could breakaway
[chorus]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love
I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Da da da'd da da
Da da da'd da da
Da da da'd da da da da
[Verse 2:]
Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get on board a fast train
Travel on a jetplane, far away
And breakaway
[chorus]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
I won't forget all the ones that I love
I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
[Bridge:]
Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging round revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me
But, gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, breakaway
[chorus 2]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye, gotta
Take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway
Breakaway
Breakaway...

Breakaway...
There is strength in your tears
And so you fight to keep from pouring out
But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul
Do you think there's enough to that you might drown?
[Chorus]
If no one will listen
If you decide to speak
If no one is left
Standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you
For what you really are
I will be here still
No one can tell you where you alone must go
There's no telling what you will find there
And, God, I know the fear that eats away at your bones
Screaming every step, "Just stay here"
[Chorus]
If you find your fists are raw and red from beating yourself down
If your legs have given out under the weight
If you find that you've been settling for a world of gray
So you wouldn't have to face down your own hate
[Chorus x2]
I know that you need it
I know that you don't need me to repeat it
But everything I have to give
I'll give to you
It's not like we planned it
You tried to stay, but you could not stand it
To see you shut down so slow
As though it was an easy thing to do
Listen when
All of this around us will fall over
I'll tell you what we're gonna do, yeah
You will shelter me, my love
And I, I will shelter you
I left you heartbroken
But not until those very words were spoken
Has anybody ever made such a fool outta you?
It's so hard to believe it
Even as our eyes do see it
The very things that made you live are killing you
Listen when all of this around us is fallin' over
I tell you what we're gonna do, yeah
You will shelter me, my love
And I, I will shelter you, yeah
We will shelter you
I will shelter you, oh
We will pray with you
We will pray with you, shelter you
We will shelter you
We'll shelter you
Listen when
All of this around us is fallin' down
We're gonna shelter you
I know that you don't need me to repeat it
But everything I have to give
I'll give to you
It's not like we planned it
You tried to stay, but you could not stand it
To see you shut down so slow
As though it was an easy thing to do
Listen when
All of this around us will fall over
I'll tell you what we're gonna do, yeah
You will shelter me, my love
And I, I will shelter you
I left you heartbroken
But not until those very words were spoken
Has anybody ever made such a fool outta you?
It's so hard to believe it
Even as our eyes do see it
The very things that made you live are killing you
Listen when all of this around us is fallin' over
I tell you what we're gonna do, yeah
You will shelter me, my love
And I, I will shelter you, yeah
We will shelter you
I will shelter you, oh
We will pray with you
We will pray with you, shelter you
We will shelter you
We'll shelter you
Listen when
All of this around us is fallin' down
We're gonna shelter you

Let me stand there now,
You didn't even care, you just walked away,
I felt so scared.
You never even looked back at me,
So, unaware of how cruel you could be,
I resolved it there did you ever care.
Did you ever care for me?
Did you ever believe in me?
Did you ever love me?
Did you, did you, did you?
You didn't have to fall,
I didn't need your tears,
I didn't want your pity,
just any feelling at all,
wouldn't have been sufficient.
I never felt so small, so insignificant,
you left me naked with nothing at all,
how could I be so blind?
Did you ever care for me?
Did you ever believe in me?
Did you ever love me?
Did you, did you, did you?
Falling down, darkness surrounds me,
I open my eyes on by my head and cry.
Did you ever believe in me?
Did you ever love me?
Did you ever care for me?
Did you ever believe in me?
Did you ever love me?
Did you, did you, did you?
Did you ever care for me?
Did you ever love me?
You didn't even care, you just walked away,
I felt so scared.
You never even looked back at me,
So, unaware of how cruel you could be,
I resolved it there did you ever care.
Did you ever care for me?
Did you ever believe in me?
Did you ever love me?
Did you, did you, did you?
You didn't have to fall,
I didn't need your tears,
I didn't want your pity,
just any feelling at all,
wouldn't have been sufficient.
I never felt so small, so insignificant,
you left me naked with nothing at all,
how could I be so blind?
Did you ever care for me?
Did you ever believe in me?
Did you ever love me?
Did you, did you, did you?
Falling down, darkness surrounds me,
I open my eyes on by my head and cry.
Did you ever believe in me?
Did you ever love me?
Did you ever care for me?
Did you ever believe in me?
Did you ever love me?
Did you, did you, did you?
Did you ever care for me?
Did you ever love me?
