Trapped inside an ugly life, stuck in my cocoon
I needed some wings to make it right
I had to fly away real soon

I've busted out and headed straight, now I'm lovin' life
'Cuz nothin' can get in my way
I'm the prettiest thing in the sky

Break me, break me
You think you can take me, take me

You're wrong, wrong, been held down too long, long
Higher, higher and I'm gone, gone, can't keep me down
'Cuz this is the way I wanna live, there is no alternative

All the colors of your world are painted onto me
I'm sick of bein' a black and white girl
Now finally I'm free

I busted through the atmosphere, into the clouds, outside
'Cuz up on top is where I'll stay
Yeah, I'll do what I like

Break me, break me
You think you can take me, take me

You're wrong, wrong, been held down too long, long
Higher, higher and I'm gone, gone, can't keep me down
'Cuz this is the way I wanna live, there is no alternative
This is the way I wanna live, there is no alternative

Everybody knows that I can't be told
To be anything but me be who I wanna be
Change my life so suddenly
Just like, hey, can't keep me down, now I'm free

Now that I know that life is cold
I can always be strong, like if somebody's gone
I was off but now I'm on
Tripped around and let me handle

Wrong, wrong, been held down too long, long
Higher, higher and I'm gone, gone, can't keep me down
'Cuz this is the way I wanna live, there is no alternative

Wrong, wrong, been held down too long, long
Higher, higher and I'm gone, gone, can't keep me down
'Cuz this is the way I wanna live, there is no alternative
This is the way I wanna live, there is no alternative
This is the way I wanna live, there is no alternative
