Break Away

My heart is heavy with despair
Again you pretend that you don't even care
This night has dragged on for far too long
And I've realized it's you who's wrong

Your arrogance it shows no love
I'll show you what I'm capable of
I slam the brakes and watch you go
You think I'm weak but this ain't no show

The ambiance now black and gray
You thought that you would get your way
It was from my knees that you cast me astray
You underestimated me now you'd better fucking pray

I race away into the night
You laugh to think I want a fight
I pulled the clutch and shifted gears
And so ignited all your fears
The sky then burst with all your tears

Your shallow tears won't douse these flames
I'm sick of playing your stupid games
The flames are fueled by heartless rage
And the way you'll see it war's been waged

But war gives credit where none is due
Through flames you see me leaving you
But through my eyes the night is calm
And I can even hear a familiar song...

I drive along
My mind at ease
Feeling returns in my cheeks
I feel the cool night breeze

The freedom tastes so damn sweet
And I feel sorry that you'll never know it
But it's not my fault you'll never show it
So this time I know it's wrong to stay
I leave you now, I break away
