Slave

[Chorus] Everybody keeps trying to break my heart Everybody except for me I just want a chance to play the part The part of someone truly free [Verse 1] Like candle slowly burning, I can feel my world unravel Hemisphere upon hemisphere lie beneath my soul, soul My enemies kept it turning, but now they pound the gavel And judging me accordingly, I know, I know [Chorus] Everybody keeps trying to break my heart Everybody except for me I just want a chance to play the part The part of someone truly free [Verse 2] Burning slowly candle, handle careless they did Merrily down three heartbreak boulevards Like fashion statements, they lie "you be lookin' so good tonight, kid" I do my best to party, it's just that everybody keeps trying to break my heart [Chorus] Everybody keeps trying to break my heart Everybody except for me I just want a chance to play the part The part of someone truly free [Verse 3] Slowly candle burns, where'd they learn hypnosis? How'd they keep me under for so long? Break the bread I earn, just keep me far from closest I need their kind to illustrate what's wrong - what's wrong? Well, I'll tell you they just keep trying to break my heart They just keep trying to break my heart, ow! (Everybody) (Everybody) [Chorus] Everybody keeps trying to break my heart Everybody except for me I just want a chance to play the part The part of someone truly free [Outro] But I can't let you break my heart (Everybody keeps trying to break my heart) Slave! (Everybody keeps trying to break my heart) Slave! Slave! (Everybody keeps trying to break my heart) Slave!
