Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sit there thinkin'
In your room
You feel the pressure
You're goin' crazy too
The walls around you
Closin' in
You need a change
[Verse 2]
Claustophobic
Feelin' scared
You need somebody
But no one seems to care
A one way ticket
A change of pace
You've had enough
Can't take no more
[Chorus]
Breaking the chains around you
Nobody else can bind you
Take a good look around you
Now, you're breaking the chains
[Verse 3]
Got this letter
Came today
From my baby
Who left me yesterday
Said she loves me
She'll come back
She wants to try
[Verse 4]
I won't let her
She'll be upset
I know it's better
Than somethin' I'll regret
She'd been dishonest
And insincere
I lost my mind
Twenty times a year
[Chorus]
Breaking the chains around me
Nobody else can bind me
Take a good look around me
Now, I'm breaking the chains
[Verse 5]
Woke up today
I'm alone
I look around
But, baby, you are gone
But I don't mind
And I don't worry
I will survive
[Verse 6]
I'm alone
Now that you're gone
Don't need nobody
To hold or tie me down
I broke the chains
So, let me be
I've gotta be free
[Chorus]
Breaking the chains around me
Nobody else can bind me
Take a good look around me
Now, I'm breaking the chains
[Outro]
Breaking the chains around me
Nobody else can bind me
Take a good look around me
Now, I'm breaking the chains
