Break Away Lyrics by Firewind

Firewind

2020

[Verse 1]
Tired soldier going home
Where's the hope and where's the shame?
There's no longing anymore
The world doesn't want to be saved

[Pre-Chorus 1]
What did you fight for? You'll never know
You're scared but you must carry on
What did you die for? A sacrifice
Defend the honor, giving your own life

[Chorus]
(You gotta break away)
You're on the run now
(Break away)
For peace of mind
(Just break away)
Your final hour
(Break away)
To find peace of mind

[Verse 2]
Feeling distant from the world
Scenes of war inside your head
Days are getting grey and cold
Your sanity hangs by a thread

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Distressing memories, a sudden grief
The nightmares creeping, there's no relied
A scream of anger tears you apart
The trauma lies within a soldier's heart

[Chorus]
(You gotta break away)
You're on the run now
(Break away)
For peace of mind
(Just break away)
Your final hour
(Break away)
To find peace of mind

[Bridge]
You made a decision to save the world
But the world doesn't want to be saved
You stood in the line of fire, you gave it all
But now you are facing hell
You're facing hell

[Instrumental Break]

[Tag]
You gotta break away
Ohhh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]
(You gotta break away)
You're on the run now
(Break away)
For peace of mind
(Just break away)
Your final hour
(Break away)
To find peace of mind

[Chorus]
(You gotta break away)
You're on the run now
(Break away)
For peace of mind
(Just break away)
Your final hour
(Break away)
To find peace of mind
