Sit there thinkin In your room You feel the pressure Youre goin crazy too The walls around you Closin in You need a change Claustophobic Feelin scared You need somebody But no one seems to care A one way ticket A change of pace Youve had enough Cant take no more (chorus 1) Breaking the chains around you Nobody else can bind you Take a good look around you Now youre breaking the chains Got this letter Came today From my baby Who left me yesterday Said she loves Shell come back She wants to try I wont let her Shell be upset I know its better Than somethin Ill regret Shes been dishonest And insincere I lost my mind Twenty times a year (chorus 2) Breaking the chains around me Nobody else can bind me Take a good look around me Now Im breaking the chains (solo) Woke up today Im alone I look around But baby you were gone But I dont mind And I dont worry I will survive Im alone Now that youre gone Dont need nobody To hold or tie me down I broke the chains So let me be Ive gotta be free (repeat chorus 2)
