Breaking the Chains

[Verse 1]

Sit there thinking

In your room

You feel the pressure

You're going crazy too

The walls around you

Closing in

You need a change

Claustrophobic

Feeling scared

You need somebody

But no one seems to care

A one way ticket

A change of pace

You've had enough

Can't take no more

[Chorus 1]

Breaking the chains around you

Nobody else can bind you

Take a good look around you

Now you're breaking the chains

[Verse 2]

Got this letter

Came today

From my baby

Who left me yesterday

Said she loves me

She'll come back

She wants to try

I won't let her

She'll be upset

I know it's better

Than something I'll regret

She's 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 I'm breaking the chains

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

Woke up today

I'm alone

I look around

But, baby, you were gone

But I don't mind

And I don't worry

I will survive

I'm alone

Now that you're gone

Don't need nobody

To hold or tie me down

I broke the chains

So let me be

I've gotta be free

[Chorus 2]

Breaking the chains around me

Nobody else can bind me

Take a good look around me

Now I'm breaking the chains

Breaking the chains around me

Nobody else can bind me

Take a good look around me

Now I'm breaking the chains
