The Breakout Lyrics - Mellencamp John Cougar

Why do you think there's nobody out there? 

No one who wants me and no one who knows 

I wait in this place, no one can see me 

After all this time could I be so alone? 

I walk through this old town and still feel lonely 

The winds play sad songs high in the trees 

The sun never shines this deep in the forest 

Am I in the darkness or is the darkness in me? 

I wanna break 

I wanna break out 

I wanna break 

I wanna break out 

I want to taste the tears of a lover 

Warm as my blood, as wet as a kiss 

But it's only dark rain that falls in this old town 

Old as my memory fand cold as my lips 

I wanna break 

I wanna break out 

I don't wanna fake it 

I want to break out 

And when I feel lonely 

And when I feel lonely 

You fly me to the sun 

Above this old town 

>From the top of the tower 

I forget about living, I forget about pain 

At the edge of the platform 

At the edge of a heartbeat 

Above this old town I flew away 

I wanna break 

I wanna break out 

I don't wanna fake it 

I want to break out 

I wanna break 

I wanna break out 

I want to break 

I want to break out
