Lyrics
I woke up
Smack dab in the middle of an awful rut
I feel it
Right down to the middle of my very gut
I don't know how I got this way
I wonder when the sky turned grey
I wanna dream and run away
I gotta make a break out
I wonder
I wonder if I'll ever find another love
Excuse me
I don't know what my empty mind was thinkin' of
I don't know how I got so low
My ego pays a heavy toll
The only thing I really know
I wanna make a break out
Stuck in the middle of YES and NO
I'm treading in the water and I never know
I'm spinning my wheels and here I go
Fallin' down again
Gotta make a break out
Gotta make a break out
Gotta make a break out
Gotta get away
It hit me
Like a heavyweight, an uppercut upon my jaw
I feel like
Like a fugative, a rebel runnin' from the law
I don't have any joie de vivre (??? check this spelling Gigi)
I'm in a state of apathy
There's nothing that appeals to me
I'm gonna make a break out
Stuck in the middle of YES and NO
I'm treading in the water and I never know
Spinning my wheels and here I go (first chorus has I'm at the beginning of this line fyi)
Fallin' down again
Gotta make a break out
Gotta make a break out
Gotta make a break out
Gotta get away
Gotta make a break out
Gotta make a break out
Gotta make a break out
Wanna get away
Gotta get away
Gonna get away
