[Verse]
You’re striking me down
With games and lies
I trusted you but I found
Your only true friend is your desire
For playin' around
You're out of your mind
You've lost control
I'm gonna take back what's mine
You ne'er have my soul
This time you have really stepped across the line

[Chorus]
Thieves in the palace full of tales and lies
We've got to stake it, burn it out
Expose the malice that they chose to hide
It's just a break-in to break out
Breaking in so we can break out
Breaking in so we can break out
Breaking in so we can break out
Breaking out!

[Verse]
Why should I believe
In anyone
When I could just trick and thieve
Life's likely to have one up it's sleeve
The game is on
We're playing the odds
That's how it's done
Pretending to act like gods
Who steal just for fun
Who cares if it means we're living on the run
[Chorus]
Thieves in the palac full of mirrors' deceit
We've had to break in to get out
Phantoms of madness snapping at your feet
We've had to break in to break out

[Bridge]
Would that I might
Be honest
And gentler
In some other life
'Cause this one has been
A hard mentor
Can't forget
What I've done
Can't forget
Why
Hoping I got it all right
In this fight

[Chorus]
Thieves in the palace to steal your golden crown
It's just a break in to break out
The cry that rallies the weak and broken down
The pain and anger, let it out!
Breaking in so we can break out
Breaking in so we can break out
Breaking in so we can break out
Breaking out!
