Breakaway

BREAKAWAY - Written by Carroll Bryant

Love is always pending

In a heart that’s made of stone

The messages you’re sending

Makes me feel so all alone

And there’s a contradiction

Between your mask and your disguise

The road to my perdition

Is filled with brutal nights

I can’t find remission

Of the cancer in our souls

This critical condition

Is just standing on its own

I call you on the telephone

Your voice sounds so strange

You tell me that you’re going home

It looks like nothing has changed

So you breakaway from all the things we used to be

You breakaway because you can and I believe

I can make you stay even though I hide behind this wall

Breakaway you can … no, you can’t stop this man

From crawling back to you

But that’s not what I choose

Happy ever after

Is just a children’s fairy-tale

Burning eyes of sapphire

Clearly tells the tale

And in my intuition

I see the way you are to leave

And in my full admission

I have no aces up my sleeve

So you breakaway from all the things we used to be

You breakaway because you can and I believe

I can make you stay even though I hide behind this wall

Breakaway you can … no, you can’t stop this man

From crawling back to you

But that’s not what I choose

No matter which way I go

I lose

I’m not crawling back to you

I say no

That’s not what I choose

No matter which way I go

I lose

I lose

So you breakaway from all the things we used to be

You breakaway because you can and I believe

I can make you stay even though I hide behind this wall

Breakaway you can … no, you can’t stop this man

From crawling back to you

But that’s not what I choose

I’m not crawling back to you
