[Verse 1]
Woke one day to a new silence
Shadow of men, nature's thriving
This air that I breathe
These visions humble me
Fond memories, fond memories
Break away, break away!

[Verse 2]
Footprints slowly fading
Destruction no longer raging
These empty streets, poetry
These empty streets, the beauty
In bloom at play
Today's the day they break away!

[Refrain]
Such a beautiful day (beautiful day)
All worries fade (worries fade)
Free of the chains (free of the chains)
What a wonderful day (what a wonderful day)

[Bridge]
As I gaze into a world anew
Hearts content, oh what a wonderful view
Free of the chains (free of the chains)
Break away, break away
[Outro]
All my worries wash away from me
As I see the world for how it's meant to be
These empty streets are so damn beautiful
All my worries wash away from me
As I see you watching how it's going to be
These empty streets are so damn beautiful
