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      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 1)   Breaking the chains around you   Nobody else can bind you   Take a good look around you   Now you're breaking the chains      Got this letter   Came today   From my baby   Who left me yesterday   Said she loves me   She'll come back   She wants to try      I won't let her   She'll be upset   I know it's better   Than somethin' I'll regret   She's been dishonest   And insincere   I lost my mind   Twenty times a year      (Chorus 2)   Breaking the chains around me   Nobody else can bind me   Take a good look around me   Now I'm breaking the chains      (Solo)      Woke up today   I'm alone   I look around   But baby you were gone   But I don't mind   And I don't worry   I will survive      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      (Repeat Chorus 2)   (Repeat Chorus 2)
