Breakaway
Gypsy&the cat Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

A troubled life will be the distant memory

Find a way to free the chain
To break away to break away
To find the time to heal the pain
To break away to break away

And if I choose a word to say
To break away to break away
Will I turn the night to day
To breakaway

Walking by a funeral on the road
Everybody's crying out of love
Little do they know, she's in a better place
Reach to the dark, the hand on the light

And nothing's there.
Truth verses light, escape the mind,
And yearn to be free.
Circular
We're all

Circular
Step outside the circle and fly.

Turn to be alone
Take some time for yourself to reflect and introspect

Find the height to change your view
Look for a new perspective that can help you grow and evolve as a person

And if I held the world, would I have the key
Questioning whether having power and influence would provide the answers to life's mysteries

And if I dare to dream, will I see the light
Exploring the possibility of fulfilling one's aspirations and finding enlightenment

Yesterday I saw a lady needing help
Observing someone in need of assistance

The only look was someone evil laughing on their way
Noticing a lack of empathy or willingness to help from others

Tonight I'll be the one to lead the way
Taking it upon oneself to be the change they want to see in the world

A troubled life will be the distant memory
Believing in the possibility of overcoming past struggles and hardships

Find a way to free the chain
Looking for liberation from something holding one back

To break away to break away
Expressing the desire to escape and find a new path

To find the time to heal the pain
Making time to address and recover from emotional or physical wounds

Considering the impact of the language and words we use

Will I turn the night to day
Wondering whether words and positive actions can bring about change and transform negative situations

Walking by a funeral on the road
Passing by a solemn and mournful occasion

Everybody's crying out of love
Witnessing the emotional and heartfelt reactions of those affected by the passing

Little do they know, she's in a better place
Speculating about the afterlife and the possibility of an improved existence

Reach to the dark, the hand on the light
Chasing hope and positivity even in difficult times

And nothing's there.
Acknowledging the emptiness and futility of certain pursuits

Truth verses light, escape the mind,
Contemplating the conflict between knowledge and bliss, and the possibility of transcending thought processes

And yearn to be free.
Craving liberation and independence

We're all
Continuation of the above idea

Repeating the previous line

Step outside the circle and fly.
Encouraging to break free from the pattern and soar towards greater goals and aspirations
