Lyrics
Break Away
I ride the same train,
I ride it everyday
I ride the same train,
And I?m always on my way.
I see the same face,
Unless I?m running late
I see the same face,
Then I?m always on my way.
I need to change states,
Change plates, I?m running late.
I need to change states,
Change plates, I?m on my way.
I need to change states, plates I?m running late.
I need to change states, change plates I?m on my way.
Chorus:
Break away,
It?s time for a change,
Every minute?s a mile.
Break away,
A change in pace,
Before this river runs dry.
Walk down the dark streets,
Walk the Chinese alleyways.
Walk down the dark streets,
Run if you?re not feeling safe.
Don?t talk to strangers,
Play it cool don?t make mistakes
Don?t talk to strangers,
Turn and walk the other way
I need to change states,
Change plates, I?m running late.
I need to change states,
Change plates, I?m on my way.
I need to change states, plates I?m running late.
I need to change states, change plates I?m on my way.
Chorus:
Break away,
It?s time for a change,
Every minute?s a mile.
Break away,
A change in pace,
Before this river runs dry.
