Dawson Samuel and Micah Ariss - Break Out

(I need to break out)
(I need a way out)
(Tell me I'm okay now)
(I need to break out )

I'm trapped in a place in my mind that I can't escape, I wish I could find the exit
But I prolly let it slip through my hands when I let my feelings get out of hand
And that seems to happen often, wonder why do I have this problem
Perfectionism has destroyed my heart and
It's prolly why I can't seem to solve this

Slammin' my fists into walls, losin' my temper I don't know the cause
But I see effect, after effect, I know my actions keep breakin' your heart
I wish I was better, wish I could change, wish that I wasn't filled with all this rage
I wish I different, I know somethings missin', 'cause I keep on runnin' right back to this place

I been starin' at the mirror and I'm hatin' myself
For reasons I don't understand, now I'm tryna get well
I just hate the way I'm feelin' so I get overwhelmed
Then I can't even make a move to try to work on myself
Can't take it anymore, I know I need to get help
Man I'm broken and I'm hurtin', things that I never felt
Are breakin' me down into pieces, I can't even tell
Where the real me is, let me outta this cell

Runnin' 'round in circles, will I see the sun again
I've been trapped inside a cycle that seems to never end
There's a war inside my mind that tells me I'm a lesser man
Is there a reason for the seasons? Is it all inside my head?

I need to break out
I need a way out
Tell me I'm okay now
I need to break out, I need to break out

Need to break out from this place I'm in
I'm sick of drownin' in my tears, feelin' hate within
Feel it close, I think I'm gonna break again
'Cause I feel the tension in my veins again
I'm havin' a hard time with facin' it
Wish I did better job bout containin' this
'Cause the nervous breakdowns come and flip the switch
And I'm a different person than I ever been

Shakin' on the floor and my heart is poundin'
Got a million different feelings and they all surround me
Suicidal thoughts come into the room and crowd me
Malicious lies in my ear tryna get me doubtin'
Devil in the other ear tryna get a bounty
But I'll never give my soul to the demons prowlin'
'Round my mind, tryna take my life, gotta choice to fight
Ima be okay yea cuz I finally realized that

Often times I can mix up feelings and truth
And I get trapped inside a cycle where I feel so confused
I like to run around in circles, hopin' I can break through
Thinkin' I'm just overthinkin', so there's nothing to do
But that's just not the case, 'cause I got to the root
I discovered hope was here with me inside of this room
Never did it leave me once, even when I felt doomed
Guess I needed this season yea to guide me to You

Runnin' 'round in circles, will I see the sun again
I've been trapped inside a cycle that seems to never end
There's a war inside my mind that tells me I'm a lesser man
Is there a reason for the seasons? Is it all inside my head?
(I need to break out)
Runnin' 'round in circles, will I see the sun again
I've been trapped inside a cycle that seems to never end
There's a war inside my mind that tells me I'm a lesser man
Is there a reason for the seasons? Is it all inside my head?

I need to break out (Yea yea)
I need a way out (Ooh)
Can you tell me I'm okay now
I need to break out, I need to break out

(I need a way out)
(Tell me I'm okay now)
(I need to break out )
