  • Break down
    Break down

    Break down
    I was scared to death I was losing my mind
    Break down
    I was scared to death I was losing my mind
    Break down

    I couldn't close my eyes I was pacing all night, oh, no,
    I think I found the light at the end of the tunnel (and my doubts)
    I couldn't find the truth I was going under

    But I won't hide inside
    I gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out
    Lonely inside and light the fuse
    Light it now, light it now, light it now

    And now I will start living today, today, today
    I close the door
    I got this new beginning and I will fly
    I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
    I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball

    Freedom
    I let go of fear and the peace came quickly
    Freedom
    I was in the dark and then it hit me
    I chose suffering and in pain in the falling rain
    I know, I gotta get out into the world again

    But I won't hide inside
    I gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get out
    Lonely inside and light the fuse
    Light it now, light it now, light it now

    And now I will start living today, today, today
    I close the door
    I got this new beginning and I will fly
    I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
    I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball

    Break down
    I was scared to death I was losing my mind
    Break down
    I gotta get out into the world again

    And now I will start living today, today, today
    I close the door
    I got this new beginning and I will fly
    I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
    I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball, like a cannonball, like a cannonball
    I'll fly, I'll fly, I'll fly like a cannonball Writer/s: Benjamin Levin, Mikkel Eriksen, Sia Furler, Tor Hermansen
