“Break Away” is the second song featured in the 2017 Scottish Christmas zombie musical film Anna and the Apocalypse, as Anna, Steph, and John (Ella Hunt, Sarah Swire, and Malcolm Cumming) express their frustrations with life in the sleepy town of Little Haven before the Apocalypse.
[Verse 1: Anna, Steph and John]
As I wake half dead
In this same old bed
At the dawn of another day
I feel chained and bound
To this hopeless town
And I know I must break away
There's a world out there
Why does no one care?
Are they lost in the games they play?
So much they don't see
But there's more to me
And I know I must break away
Oh, I've been lyin', I've been cheatin'
I've been foolin' myself
Instead of fightin', I've been hidin' away
I've been runnin', goin' nowhere
Put my heart on a shelf
And I don't want to live that way
[Chorus: All]
Trapped in a moment, ready to fly
I've got to find my own way
Sooner or later it ends in goodbye
We all have to break away
[Verse 2: Anna and Steph]
Oh it's hard to hide
When the truth inside
Rises up like a tidal wave
There's been something wrong now
For far too long
And I know I must break away
Am I lyin', Am I cheatin'
Am I foolin' myself?
Why should they listen to what I have to say?
Am I just another nobody like everyone else?
'Cause I don't want to live that way
[Chorus: All]
Trapped in a moment, ready to fly
I've got to find my own way
Sooner or later it ends in goodbye
We all have to break away
[Bridge: All]
I dream at night of my escape
How much longer must I wait?
[Verse 3: Anna]
Oh, I feel it in my skin
The walls are closin' in
I'm tired of living in
These burned-out buildings
Gotta shake the rust
Before I turn to dust
If I still had some faith, I'd pray
[Chorus: All]
Break away
Break away
Trapped in a moment, ready to fly
I've got to find my own way
Sooner or later it ends in goodbye
We all have to break away
[Outro: All]
Break away
