The Protomen - Act II: Breaking Out

BREAKING OUT
This city doesn't know what's coming.
She doesn't feel the heat.
This city won't know what hit her,
What knocked her out into the street.
This city's thinking that it's over,
And she's all ready for us to sleep.
So I'm breaking out of here tonight,
And I am, I am, I am ready.

We're given only what we need
Only the chance to survive,
And even then it's a coin toss,
A roll of the dice.
There's gotta be something better,
Something that feels more alive,
So I'm breaking out of here tonight.
I'm breaking out of here.

You've gotta feel it girl,
Feel the wind pick up.
It feels like something's gonna change.
There's no use putting it in drive,
If all the wheels are stuck.
There's something wrong here,
I guess the city wants to scream,
But no one makes a sound.

You gotta feel it baby,
Something's wrong here.
So I'm gonna find out what it is,
And I'm gonna tear it down.

The engine's running baby, and we don't have time for goodbyes.
I know that you can't come with me, I see that look in your eyes.
So kiss me fast cause there's no time to lose,
Leave the light on, I'll come back for you.
When everything is said and done, I swear I'm gonna make it right.
I'm breaking out of here tonight.

I'm breaking out of here tonight.
I'm breaking out of here tonight.
I'm breaking out of here tonight.

I'm so tired of giving up,
I am so tired of giving in.
You wake up knowing things have changed,
Not knowing where to begin.

This city won't say where she's going,
She won't speak of where she's been.
So I'm breaking out of here tonight,
Break out.

Oooohhhh, don't turn your back on the city.

Oooohhhh, don't turn your back on the city.

Oooohhhh, don't turn your back on the city.
Say a prayer for all the children still sleeping.
Oooohhhh, don't turn your back on the city.
Say a prayer for all the fathers who still remember.
Oooohhhh, don't turn your back on the city.
Say a prayer for all the girls who've learned to stand up.
Oooohhhh, don't turn your back on the city.
Say a prayer for all the boys who won't surrender.

Sometimes I just wanna drive until the streets run out.
I wanna burn until there's nothing left to burn about.
This city's waiting for a better day,
And when I get back there will be hell to pay.
If I'm the only one left here I will not be afraid to fight,
I'm breaking out of here tonight.

I feel a fever coming on and burning out of control,
Then I hear nothing but the static.
Nothing but the static.
For years I have heard nothing but the static on the radio,
So if you year my voice outside these walls.
If you can hear me.
If you can hear me sending out this message tonight,
There may be silence in the signal but,
If you can hear me.
I'm coming home, all I need is a little guiding light.

If you can hear me.
Don't turn your back on the city.

There may be silence in the signal but
Don't turn your back on the city.

There may be silence in the signal but
I'm coming home all I need is a little guiding light.

Don't turn your back on the city.
Don't turn your back on the city.

I'm coming home all I need is a little guiding light.

If you can hear me.
If you can hear me.
If you can hear me.
Don't turn your back on the city.

[avtecher]

this is the song I want played at my funeral..the funeral that lasts till I respawn with one life less.

[FluffyBunniesOnFire]

This song is awakening a feeling that's been dead in me for a long long time.

[RayeDecay]

I will never be this cool, or this sexy, and that's okay. Two of this would be too much for the world.

[PB8TU]

I'm sorry to be that person with the RIP post but...

Triforce Mike <3

[RedxRequiem]

It's bands that can play music like this, that make me glad to be alive.

[randompspstuff]

6 dislikes means 6 people didn't get this music in their souls

[slightlyskitso]

@Bloodtoxx Why would that make you sick? Meatloaf is great and is cited as one of their inspirations, along with Springsteen.

[Bloodtoxx]

@xXxJabotxXx You make me sick.

[nobody3223]

God, this song just gets inside you.

[cptcommunism99]

It starts out good and then just flips out and gets crazy awesome.

[ElMagoAzul]

My favorite part is the end.

As Joe turns off his motorcycle, all is dark.

And then the Sniper's eye emerges from the inky blackness.

It detects Joe's elevated heartrate. He will be no different from the others.

It is ready...willing...PREPARED TO KILL.

[Cataphract3]

Hail to Joe, the last hero of man....
