BREAKOUT

STUDIO

[Intro] (low rumble, whispered) ...it's building... it's building... can't hold it... [Verse 1] Walls closin' in a little more each day Same four corners, same routine, same gray Smilin' on the outside, screamin' underneath Every breath feels borrowed, every step a leash Told myself I'd wait it out, told myself I'm fine Told myself so many times I lost track of the lie Pressure's building slow but it's building all the same Something's gotta give before I lose my name [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel it comin', comin' Something in me's runnin', runnin' Every wall I've built is shakin' Every rule I kept is breakin' Can you feel it comin', comin' Something in me's runnin', runnin' Every wall I've built is shakin' Every rule I kept is breakin' [Chorus] Breakout, breakout Feel it risin' in my bones Breakout, breakout I ain't cagin' this alone Breakout, breakout Watch these walls come fallin' down Breakout, breakout Ain't no hidin' who I found Breakout, breakout Feel it risin' in my bones Breakout, breakout I ain't cagin' this alone Breakout, breakout Watch these walls come fallin' down Breakout, breakout Ain't no hidin' who I found [Verse 2] Everybody wants the version I pretend Nobody wants the one that's comin' round the bend Kept it quiet, kept it tame, kept it in a cage Didn't know a cage could hold this much rage Every rule I followed just to keep the peace Every year it's harder findin' some release Somethin's gotta break before I do Guess it's finally time I follow through [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel it comin', comin' Something in me's runnin', runnin' Every wall I've built is shakin' Every rule I kept is breakin' Can you feel it comin', comin' Something in me's runnin', runnin' Every wall I've built is shakin' Every rule I kept is breakin' [Chorus] Breakout, breakout Feel it risin' in my bones Breakout, breakout I ain't cagin' this alone Breakout, breakout Watch these walls come fallin' down Breakout, breakout Ain't no hidin' who I found Breakout, breakout Feel it risin' in my bones Breakout, breakout I ain't cagin' this alone Breakout, breakout Watch these walls come fallin' down Breakout, breakout Ain't no hidin' who I found [Verse 3] Used to think that breakin' meant I lost Now I'm learnin' stayin' quiet has a cost Every version of me that I buried alive Startin' to claw its way back to survive Ain't no goin' back to who I used to be Ain't no cagin' up whatever's in me This the moment everything gives way This the only thing I've got to say [Bridge] (screamed) I CAN'T HOLD IT! I CAN'T HOLD IT! (building, chaotic) IT'S COMIN'! IT'S COMIN'! (explosive scream) BREAKOUT! BREAKOUT! [Chorus] Breakout, breakout Feel it risin' in my bones Breakout, breakout I ain't cagin' this alone Breakout, breakout Watch these walls come fallin' down Breakout, breakout Ain't no hidin' who I found Breakout, breakout Feel it risin' in my bones Breakout, breakout I ain't cagin' this alone Breakout, breakout Watch these walls come fallin' down Breakout, breakout Ain't no hidin' who I found [Outro] (fading, exhausted) ...finally out... finally out...
