Lyrics
Its funny how we always say we?re free
Tied up in the chains that we can?t see
Everybody?s cold and dry dressed up in the reasons why
Its funny how we make believe we?re free
Oh don?t you wanna fall apart
Don?t you wanna let go
Take a chance and break your heart
Don?t you wanna feel something
It?s funny how we make believe we?re free
Running down illusions we can?t see
I have run and I have crawled they?re all lies but they / that stand so tall
It?s funny how we always say we?re free
Oh don?t you wanna fall apart
Don?t you wanna let go
Take a chance and break a heart
Oh don?t you wanna give it up
Don?t you wanna let go
Take a chance and live it up
Tonight we?re gonna feel something
Tonight we?re gonna feel something
If it hurts well that?s all right
In the burn I see the light
It?s the pain that lets me know
I?m alive
Tonight I wanna fall apart
I wanna let go
Want you to break my heart
Oh I wanna give it up
I wanna let go
Take a chance and live it up
Tonight I?m gonna feel something
Tonight I?m gonna feel something
