Breaking Out
I don't care what they say about me
I am who I am
no one can take that away from me
or can they?

I don't belong here regardless
I need to be free
no one can open the deep pit
that I dug...

I hear them talking and swearing
I feel their presence
can't even sleep in peace at night
'cause of them...

I hear screams coming from the next room
I feel an evil
no more living for there isn't life
not like this....

Will this nightmare go on forever
I surely hope not
we've got to get out of this place tonight
are you with me?
