Thumb — Break My Back lyrics

Lyrics

They wanted to break my back, wanted to hold me back from beeing free
They had a part for me in society, but that wasn’t me
They gave me an early start, when they broke my heart i needed to see
That if i wanted to be myself i couldn’t be myself without me!
So here i am!
I stepped out!
To be free!
'cause with all that’s left inside of me, with my back against the wall
I can still decide what’s best for me, i can still say all i want
«now that i’m free!»
I needed to learn the truth, i had to find my own destiny
Ev’rybody would pass me by, i couldn’t pacify the urge in me!
Cause i was given wings to fly, that i was meant to try can’t you see
That if i wanted to be myself i couldn’t be myself without me!
So here i am!
I stepped out!
To be free!
'cause with all that’s left inside of me, with my back against the wall
I can still decide what’s best for me, i can still stay in control
Now that i’m free!
You didn’t think that i would try…
You never knew what’s on my mind…
You didn’t think i’d really try to be more than this?!
I had to live in agony…
I knew you’re looking down on me…
But i always knew that i would be so much more than this!
'cause with all that’s left inside of me, with my back against the wall
I can still decide what’s best for me, i can still say all i want!
«now that i’m free!»
