Breakaway Lyrics

He won't tell her what is going on
He won't tell her what is going on
Well try, oh, try, oh
Lie, oh, lie, oh
He won't tell her what is going on

You may think that he's a demolition expert
When he's finished with your self-esteem
It may be true, we all need knocking down a few
Oh, come find shelter, oh your shelter with me
With me
Breakaway

She don't like to disturb the peace
Became attached to the weak at least
She's got diamonds to show for it
That tree of gold for it
Well, she don't like to disturb the peace

You may think that he's a master of disguise
You lost your dignity, you compromised
It may be true, we all need knocking down a few
Come find shelter, oh your shelter with me, with me

Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh
Breakaway, oh

You (breakaway, oh)
You may think that he's a demolition expert (breakaway, oh)
When he's finished with your self-esteem (breakaway, oh)
It may be true, we all need knocking down a few (breakaway, oh)
Come find shelter oh your shelter with me, with me (breakaway, oh)

Breakaway, oh
Breakaway

What is the Meaning of Breakaway?

Exploring the complexities of relationships, this track delves into themes of emotional manipulation and self-esteem. The song portrays a person who is seemingly trapped in an unhealthy relationship, where their partner is not transparent and has a destructive impact on their self-worth. However, the lyrics also offer hope and comfort, suggesting that everyone goes through tough times ("we all need knocking down a few") and there's always a place to find solace ("come find shelter with me"). The repetitive use of "Breakaway" suggests the need for liberation from such toxic situations. This song serves as a powerful reminder that one should never compromise their dignity for someone else's manipulative actions. 🕊️
