Playing a role, that easy, but being yourself, that's a challenge.

I waited
I waited
And I waited for you

And I wondered
And I wondered
And I wondered when you’d come
And rescue me

You never came

I sat and waited in my Ivory Tower
and wondered for so long
When you’d come and save me
Save me from my exile

(Music Builds)

But now I know,
You’re never going to come
You’re not the one
Who’ll save me

I’ve got break out
I’ve gotta break free
I’m gonna tear down these walls that hold me in
I’m gonna be free from you

(Musical Interlude)

You called me
You called me
You called me to apologize

You asked me
You asked me
You asked me to wait for you

But I’m done with you

I waited and waited for you to come
Wonder’n and Waiting For you
You’re gonna have to chase me down
Cause I’m done waiting

(Music Builds)

Now I know,
You’re never going to come
You’re not the one
Who’ll save me

I’ve got break out
I’ve gotta break free
I’m gonna tear down these walls that hold me inside
I’m gonna be free from you

(Music falls quiet)

You tried to catch me
But gave up the chase too soon
Now I’m long gone
You’re not gonna catch me now!

But now I know,
You’re never going to come
You’re not the one
Who’ll save me

I’ve got break out
I’ve gotta break free
I’m gonna tear down these walls that hold me inside
I’m gonna be free from you

Now I’m free from you
