Lyrics

Trapped

[Verse 1]

It’s how I felt when my lungs were on fire

Under pressure, it was down to the wire

I’m deep deep down there’s no way out

It’s how I felt when they said it was love

Nothing like I’d been dreaming of

Feeling trapped, there’s no way back

[Pre-Chorus]

What would the people say if I went my own way?

I’m shaking, heart is racing too

Would they look the other way?

Tell me it’ll be ok

I’m shaking, heart is racing

[Chorus]

Can you break me out?

Help me break these chains around my feet

And I’ll be finally running free again

Can you break mе out?

I know I’ll need all my strength to make it

Can’t you see my hands are shaking?

Whoaaa

[Verse 2]

Somеwhere out there’s a second chance

Finally, it’s held with my own hands

But I’ve been here a million times before

[Pre-Chorus]

What would the people say if I went my own way?

I’m shaking, heart is racing

[Chorus]

Can you break me out?

Help me break these chains around my feet

And I’ll be finally running free again

Can you break me out?

I know I’ll need all my strength to make it

Can’t you see my hands are shaking?

Whoaaa

[Chorus]

Can you break me out?

Help me break these chains around my feet

And I’ll be finally running free again

Can you break me out?

I know I’ll need all my strength to make it

Can’t you see my hands are shaking?

[Chorus]

Can you break me out?

Help me break these chains around my feet

And I’ll be finally running free again

Can you break me out?

I know I’ll need all my strength to make it

Can’t you see my hands are shaking?

Whoaaa
