Grew up in a small town 
And when the rain would fall down 
I just stared out my window 
Dreaming of a could-be 
And if I'd end up happy 
I would pray (I would pray) 

Trying not to reach out 
But when I'd try to speak out 
Felt like no one could hear me 
Wanted to belong here 
But something felt so wrong here 
So I pray (I would pray) 
I could breakaway 

[Chorus:] 
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly 
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky 
I'll make a wish 
Take a chance 
Make a change 
And breakaway 
Out of the darkness and into the sun 
But I won't forget all the ones that I loved 
I'll take a risk 
Take a chance 
Make a change 
And breakaway 

Wanna feel the warm breeze 
Sleep under a palm tree 
Feel the rush of the ocean 
Get onboard a fast train 
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will) 
And breakaway 

[Chorus] 

Buildings with a hundred floors 
Swinging around wild indoors 
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but 
Gotta keep moving on, moving on 
Fly away, breakaway 

I'll spread my wings 
And I'll learn how to fly 
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye 
I gotta take a risk 
Take chance 
Make a change 
And breakaway 
Out of the darkness and into the sun 
But I won't forget the place I come from 
I gotta take a risk 
Take a chance 
Make a change 
And breakaway, breakaway, breakaway
