Break Away
Tokio Hotel · Best Of (English Version) [2010]
Don't need permission anyway
'Cause here I'm standing after all
With my back against the wall
Against the wall
I put all the blame on you
'bout me in all that I went through
You don't give me any choice
Now I'm gonna make some noise
Make some noise
I feel so
Claustrophobic here
Watch out
Now you better disappear
You can't make me stay
I'll break away
Break away
I'm warning you, don't follow me
I won't miss you, can't you see
What you wanted it didn't work
Go on digging in the dirt
In the dirt
Cold sweat on your brow
Now you can hear me shout
The world is about to distruct
Now I'm gonna pull the plug
Pull the plug
I feel so
Claustrophobic here
Watch out
Now you better disappear
You can't make me stay
I'll break away
Break away
No more counting all your lies
No more waiting for your goodbye
It's too late
Much too late
You are like a bitter pill
That I had to take
Against my will
I feel so
Claustrophobic here
Watch out
Now you better disappear
You can't make me stay
I'll break away
Break away
I feel so
Claustrophobic here
Watch out
Now you better disappear
You can't make me stay
I'll break away
Break away
Break away
