Slave Lyrics

CHORUS: 
Everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my heart 
Everybody except 4 me 
I just want a chance 2 play the part 
The part of someone truly free 

Like candle slowly burning, I can feel my world unravel 
Hemisphere upon hemisphere lie beneath my soul, soul 
My enemies kept it turning, but now they pound the gavel 
And judging me accordingly, I know, I know 

CHORUS 

Hey! {x3} 
Oh 

Burning slowly candle, handle careless they did 
Merrily down 3 heartbreak boulevards 
Like fashion statements, they lie "U be lookin' so good 2night, kid" 
I do my best 2 party, it's just that everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my 
heart 

(CHORUS) 
Except 4 me (Except 4 me) 
I just want a chance 2 play 

(Just wanna be free) 

Slowly candle burns, where'd they learn hypnosis? 
How'd they keep me under 4 so long? 
Break the bread I earn, just keep me far from closest 
I need their kind 2 illustrate what's wrong - what's wrong? 

Well, I'll tell U they just keep tryin' 2 break my heart (CHORUS) 
They just keep tryin' 2 break my heart, ow! 

(Everybody) {x2} 

CHORUS 

But I can't let U break my heart 

(Everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my heart) 
Slave! (Everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my heart) 
Slave! Slave! (Everybody keeps tryin' 2 break my heart) 
Slave!
