Lyrics[]
Sometimes I feel like, I don't have any love
No one cares for me, I have no one to speak of
Sometimes I feel like, my heart is just a toy
And each time you break it, it seemed to bring me so much joy
I've got to break away
From the sadness that you bring
I've got to break away
And find life's meaning
I've got to break away
From the sadness that you bring
I've got to break away
And find life's meaning
It seems to make you happy, to see me this way
But your happiness is my sorrow, growing stronger every day
I don't know how but, I've got to find someone new
Someone to make me happy, which you could never do
I've got to break away
From the sadness that you bring
I've got to break away
And find life's meaning
I've got to break away
From the sadness that you bring
I've got to break away
And find life's meaning
Your love it seems, is oh so wrong for me
All that you do is bring me misery
So I'll just go although I want to stay
But I just can't go on trying to life my life this way
I've got to break away
From the sadness that you bring
I've got to break away
And find life's meaning
I've got to break away
From the sadness that you bring
I've got to break away
And find life's meaning
I've got to break away
I'm going to break, break away, I've got to leave today
From the sadness that you bring
Break away
And find life's meaning
Break away
I've got to break, break away, I've got to leave today, oh
From the sadness that you bring
Break away
And find life's meaning
I'm going to break away
