Breaking Me Out

I spent years buildin' these walls
I built 'em wide, and I built 'em tall
No one in, no one out
Nobody's gonna hurt this heart now
Then she came circlin' 'round my door
Guess she saw somethin' worth fightin' for

She said "I know you're in there
I'll come in I swear"
Then I hear boom boom boom
Louder and louder
Faster, stronger
I felt the power
Then the light broke through
The walls came down
She wasn't breakin' in
She was breakin' me out

She said "You can't live
Hiding away
There's no room to grow
In the cage you've made"
Little by little, stone by stone
She wouldn't let me leave it alone
Sometimes I thought it couldn't be done
I would've given up , but she kept on

She said "I know you're in there
I'll come in I swear"
Then I hear boom boom boom
Louder and louder
Faster, stronger
I felt the power
Then the light broke through
The walls came down
She wasn't breakin' in
She was breakin' me out

A heart can't live by itself
You gotta risk it all on someone else
Cause if it's not the love that you receive
It's the love that you give that sets you free

She said "I know you're in there
I'll come in I swear"
Then I hear boom boom boom
Louder and louder
Faster, stronger
I felt the power
Then the light broke through
The walls came down
She wasn't breakin' in
She was breakin' me out
She was breakin' me out
She was breakin' me out
