Testo di 'Breaking Out' di The Protomen

The city doesn't know what's coming,
She doesn't feel the heat

The city won't know what hit her,
What knocked her out into the street

The city is thinking that it's over,
She's already fast asleep

I'm breaking out of here tonight
I am, I am, I'm ready!

We're given only what we need,
Only the chance to survive

And even then, it's a coin toss,
A roll of the dice

There's gotta be something better,
Something that feels more alive

So I'm breaking out of here tonight,
I'm breaking out of here

You gotta feel it girl,
Feel the wind pick up

It feels like something's gonna change
(Something's gotta change!)
There's no use putting it in drive
If all the wheels are stuck

There's somethin' wrong with us
(Somethin's wrong with us!)
Like this whole city wants to scream,
But no one makes a sound

You gotta feel it, girl
(Something's wrong with us!)
So I'm gonna find out what it is,
And I'm gonna tear it down

The engine's runnin', baby,
We don't have time for goodbye

I know you can't come with me,
I see that look in your eye

So kiss me fast, 'cause there's no time to lose,
Leave the light on, I'll come back for you,
When everything is said and done, I swear I'm gonna make it right!
Cause I'm breaking out of here tonight!

And I'm so tired of giving up,
I am so tired of giving in

You wake up knowing things should change,
Not knowing where to begin

This city won't say where she's going,
She won't speak of where she's been

But I'm breaking out of here tonight,
Break out..

(Ooh, don't turn your back on the city)
(Ooh, don't turn your back on the city)
(Ooh, don't turn your back on the city)
Say a prayer for all the children still sleepin'
(Ooh, don't turn your back on the city)
Say a prayer for all the fathers who still remember
(Ooh, don't turn your back on the city)
Say a prayer for all the girls that learned to stand up!
(Ooh, don't turn your back on the city)
Say a prayer for all the boys who won't surrender!

Sometimes I just wanna drive until the streets run out,
I want to burn until there's nothing left to burn about

This city's waiting for a better day
When I get back, there will be hell to pay
If I'm the only one left here, I will not be afraid to fight!
I'm breaking out of here tonight!

I feel a fever coming on me burning out of control
Then I hear nothing but the static
(Nothin' but the static!)
For years, there's been nothing but the static on the radio

So if you can hear my voice outside these walls
(Hear me!)
If you can hear me sending out this message tonight

There may be silence in the signal but
(Hear me!)
I'm comin' out, I need a little guiding light

(If you can hear me!)

(Don't turn your back on the city!)
There may be silence in the signal but
(Don't turn your back on the city!)
There may be silence in the signal but
I'm comin' out, I'm comin' out..

(Don't turn your back on the city!)
(Don't turn your back on the city!)
I'm comin' out, I need a little guiding light.
