Ted Leavitt - Break Away Lyrics

He starts the car but doesn't drive
Just lets the engine run
He checks the mirror and just sees his face
The trace of what was done

His eyes are red but he cannot cry
The pain has made him numb
His bones are tired but he cannot sleep
He cannot be the one

He breaks away
He breaks away
He cannot stay, so
He breaks away

She lays in bed and hears it all
The monster in the dark
She holds her breath and shuts her eyes
Til she can see the stars

She has to wait for it to go
Though it is never far
She thinks she'll never see the light
She'll always have a scar

She breaks away
She breaks away
She cannot stay, so
She breaks away

Bridge
They run away
They hide away
They're so afraid
Nobody stays
They break away

Every time the darkness falls
And streets call out the pain
Every time the red eyes come
And the scar inflames
We listen well to hear the sound
Will someone call our name?

We break away
We break away
We cannot stay, so
We break away

Nobody stays
Nobody stays
Nobody stays
Nobody stays
