Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll find somebody new and there'll be no more sorrow
That's what I do each time, but I can't follow through
I can't breakaway, though you make me cry
I can't breakaway, I can't say goodbye
No I'll never never breakaway from you, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
I'll make that vow to myself, you and I are through
Nothing can change my mind; I'm sorry won't do
That's what I'll say each time, but I can't follow through
I can't breakaway, though you make me cry
I can't breakaway, I can't say goodbye
No I'll never never breakaway from you, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
Even though you treat me bad and many cruel words are spoken
You have got a spell on me that just can't be broken, no, no
I'll take your picture down and throw it away
There'll be no baby now, for you to call each day
That's what I'll say each time, but I can't follow through
I can't breakaway, though you make me cry
I can't breakaway, I can't say goodbye
No I'll never never breakaway from you, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
I can't breakaway, though you make me cry
I can't breakaway, I can't say goodbye
No I'll never never breakaway from you, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no
I can't breakaway, I can't breakaway, I can't breakaway
The lyrics of Creamers's song Breakaway tell the story of a person who is trying to break free from a toxic relationship but is unable to do so. The singer in the song has made a reservation to leave town and start again, but they admit that they have done this before and have not been able to follow through. They cannot break away from the person they are with, even though they make them cry and treat them badly. The singer acknowledges their inability to let go of the relationship and move on, despite their best efforts.
The second verse of the song shows the singer making a vow to themselves that they will end the relationship for good. They state that nothing can change their mind and use the phrase "sorry won't do" to indicate that apologies from the other person will not be enough to keep them in the relationship. However, they admit that they have made this same promise before and have not been able to stick to it. The singer is aware of their own weakness, unable to break away from the person who holds a spell over them.
The final verse of the song reveals that the singer has taken steps to remove the other person from their life. They have thrown away their picture and there will be "no baby now, for you to call each day." Despite these actions, the singer still cannot break away, even though they know they should. The repetition of the phrase "I can't breakaway" at the end of the song emphasizes the singer's struggle to let go of the relationship.
