Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And breakout
[Verse 2]
When explanations make no sense
When every answer's wrong
You're fightin' with lost confidence
All expectations gone
[Verse 3]
The time has come to make or break
Move on, don't hesitate
And breakout
[Verse 4]
Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make it last (Ooh)
You've got to find a way, say what you want to say, breakout
[Verse 5]
When situations never change
Tomorrow looks unsure
Don't leave your destiny to chance
What are you waiting for?
[Verse 6]
The time has come to make or break
Breakout
[Verse 7]
Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make it last (Ooh)
You've got to find a way, say what you want to say, breakout
[Verse 8]
Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make it last (Ooh)
You've got to find a way, say what you want to say, breakout
[Verse 9]
Some people stop at nothing
If you're searchin' for something
Lay down the law, shout out for more
Breakout and shout, day in and day out, breakout
[Verse 10]
Breakout
Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make it last (Ooh)
You've got to find a way, say what you want to say, breakout
[Verse 11]
Don't stop to ask
Now you've found a break to make it last (Ooh)
You've got to find a way, say what you want to say, breakout
Don't stop to ask
Lay down the law, shout out for more
Breakout and shout, day in and day out
Now you've found a break to make it last
Ooh, breakout
Breakout, breakout
You've got to find a way, say what you want to say, breakout
Don't stop to ask
Lay down the law, shout out for more
Breakout and shout, day in and day out, breakout
Now you've found a break to make it last...
