David Loving - Breakaway lyrics

Artist: David Loving

album: Milltown Requiem


She's spent a lifetime in this one horse town
Slowly dying since the mill closed down
There's something out there past a city limit sign
The mysteries concealed just beyond the county line
A beat up cardboard box contains the sum of eighteen years
The screen door's final slam leaves its ringing in her ears
She climbs behind the wheel of that old car in the drive
It stutters groans and mumbles as the engine roars to life
Break away, oh spread your wings and fly
Break away and leave this town behind
You'll find your place and I know you'll do just fine
But it's time to break away, it's time to break away and start a brand new life
The tires on the asphalt sing their melancholy song
She crosses the horizon and she knows she's really gone
Inside she knows she's not the first to face the world out there
But so many didn't make it, they all ended up back here
Break away, oh spread your wings and fly
Break away and leave this town behind
You'll find your place and I know you'll do just fine
But it's time to break away, to break away and start a brand new life
And I know your feelings are a mix of love and hate
The tangled up emotions that you can't quite separate
In time the sharp wounds soften down into a faded scar
The places that we come from helps to make us who we are
Break away, oh spread your wings and fly
Break away, and leave this town behind
You'll find your place and I know you'll do just fine
But it's time to break away, to break away and start a brand new life
