Ain't gonna break these chains
Oughta throw away the key
'Cause a life on your own is better off without me
Hard to sleep away the pain
When you give me the time of day
Is this over, I don't know, it's hard to say (hard to say, hard to say)
Here I am, all alone
Calling these walls my home
Waitin' for you to go and make your own way
Away from me is where you ought to be
And darlin', I believe it is your own fate
Don't even bother to help me (oh, help me) with this jailbreak
Don't try to lend a hand, better off a broken man
I know you see all the certain, in my eyes
You beat me black and blue when you done told me the truth
I told you when I left it would be a big surprise (a big surprise, big surprise)
Here I am, all alone
Callin' these walls my home
Waitin' for you to go and make your own way
Away from me is where you ought to be
And darlin', I believe it is your fate
Don't even bother to help me (oh, help me)
With this jailbreak, this jailbreak, yeah, this jailbreak
