Walking down the old road
Walking in my old shoes
You turn to leave
It seems to me
It don't matter to where I do run
I'm knocking on the same door
Gazing at the same clouds
But suddenly it seems to be so different
It feels like a change gonna come
And now I can't wait to take off
And just fly to the sun
So if you try
To stop me now
And if you come to tell me
You will hold me down
It's just because you cannot understand
I've waited all my life
That's why I'll break my chains tonight
(I'm gonna break my, break my chains)
You tell me that you love me
Tell me that you need me
It ain't the truth
I'm feeling used
I'll make up my mind
And walk straight out the door
I never thought it would be so easy
To turn back no more
So if you try
To stop me now
And if you come to tell me
You will hold me down
It's just because you cannot understand
I've waited all my life
That's why I'll break my chains
And if you think
This life's enough
Not more to say, and even worse
Not more to love
That's just because
I have to spread my wings
And learn how to fly
That's why I break my chains tonight
This is a beginning not the end
And I'm not afraid, I just pretend
'Cause I don't wanna look like I am stronger
Than anyone else here
But I can see my future bright and clear
And I can see my world with no more tears
But tell me what's a chance if you don't take it
There's no use in a plan if you don't make it
If you're tired of a rule, just go out and break it
(So if you try) if you try
(To stop me now) you won't stop me now
(And if you come to tell me) tell
(You will hold me down) no, no you won't hold me down
(And that's just because) I have to spread my wings
And learn how to fly
I'm gonna break my chains
I'm gonna break my chains
I'm gonna break my chains, tonight
Break my chains
