Break Away
Blind Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Times that I had once are done
It's strange to be so far away
All that I pretend, is nothing in the end
Is this how the story ends?

All this time I've been off the track
I still believe it's getting better
How I hate the mirror staring back
And I refuse to see the truth

I chase myself
I lose the way
My destination's out of sight
To change myself
I break away

I don't wanna wear a shattered face
When all my pain feels like forever
All I long for is a better shape
A better shape of my tomorrows

I chase myself
I lose the way
My destination's out of sight
To change myself
I break away (break away)

I chase myself
I lose the way
My destination's out of sight
To change myself
I break away (I break away)

All this time I've been way off the track
I blur all my weakness
I hide all my fears

I chase myself
I lose the way
I break away

To change myself
I break away (break away)

I chase myself
I lose the way
My destination's out of sight
To change myself
I break away

Break away
