Staring down these empty streets 
ready to get out
Thoughts runnin' through my mind
far beyond this town
been thinkin' bout breakin away
I've been in this place too long
ready for a new dance
but I'm singing the same old song

chorus
I'm ready to break away
get out of here and run
I'm ready to live my life
see what I can become
but this old town is choking me
the ties that bind are too strong
Ya, I'm ready for a new dance
but I'm singin' 
sing'in the same old song

Days are rollin by 
can't keep em from runnin' away
I'm watching all my dreams 
fade to yesterday
Ya, I gotta to move on
No, I don't belong
ya, I need a new dance
but I'm singing the same old song
