breakOUT
Cyrus Miley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every week's the same
Stuck in school, so lame
My parents say that I'm lazy
Getting up at eight a.M.'s crazy
Tired being told what to do
So unfair
So uncool
The day's too long
And I'm holding on
'Til I hear the bell ring
'Cause that's the time when we're gonna
Time when we're gonna

Breakout
Let the party start
We're gonna stay out
Gonna break some hearts
We're gonna dance 'til the dance floor falls apart
Uh-oh, all over again

We're gonna wake up
Everyone we know
We're gonna have some fun
Gonna lose control
It feels so good to let go

Hangin' out's just something we like to do
My friends and the mess we get into
These are the lessons that we choose
Not a buck for the things we'll never use

The day's too long
And I'm holding on
'Til I hear the bell ring
'Cause that's the time when we're gonna
Time when we're gonna

Breakout
Let the party start
We're gonna stay out
Gonna break some hearts
We're gonna dance 'til the dance floor falls apart
Uh-oh, all over again

We're gonna wake up
Everyone we know
We're gonna have some fun
Gonna lose control
It feels so good to let go

I wish it would never end
Spendin' time with my friends (ooh)
Oh, with my friends

Breakout
Let the party start
We're gonna stay out
Gonna break some hearts
We're gonna dance 'til the dance floor falls apart
Uh-oh, all over again

We're gonna wake up
Everyone we know
We're gonna have some fun
Gonna lose control
It feels so good to let go

Breakout
Let the party start
We're gonna stay out
Gonna break some hearts
We're gonna dance 'til the dance floor falls apart
Uh-oh, all over again

We're gonna wake up
Everyone we know
We're gonna have some fun




Gonna lose control
It feels so good to let go

Can we all agree that when this song came out was a pretty great time to be alive? Things were simpler, now look at us, we're all bitter adults.

@tayhay894

true that...😂😂😂😂

@lizzygrant4eva

Victoria Johnson, I was eight when this cam out. My birthday: January 28th 2000. Its today :) I rlly agree with u. When I was 8 I didn't have to anything. Now I see eight year olds doing billions of things, and my 10 year old cute brother is doing all different kind of ways to do things at work which is dumb, but I understand once I see the example. Things were so simple back then. Making money was simple. God wish I could relive the old times. My 3rd grade days were the bomb, but mostly 2011 was da yearrr! I'm turning 17 today. Bye!
