Awwww,

Break down!

I've been breaking sweats in the night-time

I was growing my hair

And I could not care

What they think

Cause my eyes were turned up

Like you tore open the ceiling

I've been singing songs in the night-time

I was banging my head

And I could not care

What they think

I said don't open the door

Even if you hear me screaming

I built a raft and got carried away

In my new direction

And there's where I stay

Cause, you should have known

That this boy wasn't grown

So you can go away,

Go away

If you want to leave,

If you want to leave

Now get down!

I was catching glimpses of bright lights

And they attracted my steps

'Till I was so scared

Of what could be

Hidden underneath the rocks

So we're never in position

I was singing songs of a lost mind

But I am still with my friends

So I am not scared

Of anything

I said "don't open the door

Even if you hear me screaming"

I met a boy who got carried away

In my direction

And there's where he stays

Well, you should have known

That this boy wasn't grown

So you can go away,

Go away

If you want to leave

And now don't you hide

'Cause you've got a treasure to find

So shed those leaves that you lie underneath (underneath)

And now don't you stray,

If you feel that you've lost your way

Share this feeling that came over me (over me)

Break down!

I've been breaking sweats in the night-time

I was growing my hair

And I could not care

What they think

I said

"Don't open the door, even if you hear me screaming!"

I am the boy who got carried away

In my new direction

And there's where I stay

Well, you should have known

That this boy wasn't grown

So you can go away,

Go away

If you want to leave

If you want to leave

Woohoohooo

You should have known

That this boy wasn't grown

So you can go away,

Go away

If you want to leave

If you want to leave
