Lyrics: Gotthard. Break Away.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I LIED JUST TO SETTLE MY SOUL
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TRIED TO ESCAPE THIS BLACK HOLE
NIGHT AFTER NIGHT, ALWAYS DARKNESS, I LONG FOR THE LIGHT
AS I DIVE IN AN OCEAN OF HOPE, WITH NO ISLAND IN SIGHT

TIME TO BREAK AWAY, FACE ANOTHER DAY
FIND THE COURAGE TO PULL DOWN THE WALL
THAT?S BUILT AROUND ME
TIME TO BREAK AWAY, AND LET COME WHAT MAY
DROP THE CHAINS OF THAT DULL INDECISION
AND GO ALL THE WAY, THIS TIME, I?LL BREAK AWAY

THERE IS A STORY INSIDE ME WAITING TO UNFOLD
AN URGE WITHIN TO COME OUT OF THIS TERRIBLE COLD
AS I STOP THIS ILLUSION A WORLD OF CONFUSION INSIDE
VENUS RELEASE ME, CUZ I?M ON THE VERGE TO COLLIDE

TIME TO BREAK AWAY, FACE ANOTHER DAY
FIND THE COURAGE TO PULL DOWN THE WALL
THAT?S BUILT AROUND ME

TIME TO BREAK AWAY, AND LET COME WHAT MAY
DROP THE CHAINS OF THAT DULL INDECISION
AND GO ALL THE WAY, THIS TIME I?LL BREAK AWAY

AND ALL THOSE VOICES AROUND ME KEEP TELLING ME NO
THERE?S NO BETTER PLACE YOU CAN BE
THAN THE ONE THAT YOU ALREADY KNOW
BUT IT?S NOT IN MY NATURE, NOR PART OF MY PLAN
CUZ I?M BORN A GAMBLER

I?LL ROLL THE DICE STRAIGHT OFF MY HAND

TIME TO BREAK AWAY, FACE ANOTHER DAY
FIND THE COURAGE TO PULL DOWN THE WALL
THAT?S BUILT AROUND ME
TIME TO BREAK AWAY, AND LET COME WHAT MAY
DROP THE CHAINS OF THAT DULL INDECISION
AND GO ALL THE WAY, THIS TIME I?LL BREAK AWAY
