Breaking Away

*Verse 1*

There's a girl on the train
With a bright red stain
On her bright blue shoes
She’s a pale grey soul
In her dark brown skin

And her hazel eyes
Tell a thousand lies
When she smiles at the world
It's a long way down
To the place she's in

Take off your suit
Your bloodstained boots
Burn down your thrones
My golden wings will bring you home

*Chorus*

I came to fix you
To save the day
My words’ll whisk you
Away, away
And my love will flood your soul
Write upon the sacred scroll
Of your heart
And slowly take its toll
Today's the day
At dawn we're breaking away

*Verse 2*

There's a broken toy
In the hands of a boy
With a vacant stare
He's a paper soul
With a cardboard heart
And the things he's done
With a bloodstained gun
Keep him up in the night
It's a long way down
To the place he's in

Lay bare your cards
Unveil you scars
Your heart of stone
My golden wings
Will bring you home

*Chorus*

I came to fix you
To save the day
My words’ll whisk you
Away, away
And my love will flood your soul
Write upon the sacred scroll
Of your heart
And slowly take its toll
Today’s the day

*Bridge*

We're breaking away
Breaking away
Breaking away
We’re breaking away
Breaking away
Breaking away

We're breaking away

*Chorus*

I came to fix you
To save the day
My words'll whisk you
Away, away
And my love will flood your soul
Write upon the sacred scroll
Of your heart
And slowly take its toll
Today's the day

We’re breaking away
