I've been feeling so small,
Watch the clock ticking off the wall,
But tonight I'm letting it go,
Spend my coin for sure

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm gonna be myself,
Or I could be someone else,
No one's stopping me now,
I'm gonna skip my breaks,
I'm gonna make mistakes,
I just wanna feel alive

*silent*
It's just what I do when I'm out so

[Chorus]
C#m        B       A
Try not to hold me down,
C#m
Feel alive,
         B       A
When I'm in this town,
C#m           
Look at those beautiful stars,
B               A
I wanna drive a faster car,
A
Nothing can break me,
A
No, no,
A
Nothing can break me

C#m        B       A
Try not to hold me down,
C#m
Feel alive,
         B       A
When I'm in this town,
C#m           
Look at those beautiful stars,
B              A
I wanna take a trip to Mars
A
Nothing can break me,
A
No, no,
A
Nothing can break me

C#m    B    A
C#m    B    A
C#m    B    A
C#m      
Look at the beautiful stars
B               A
I wanna drive a faster car

Lay my troubles to rest,
Blow the smoke through my cigarette,
City lights looking fine,
And know that this is my time now

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm gonna be myself,
Or I could be someone else,
No one's stopping me now,
I'm gonna skip my breaks,
I'm gonna make mistakes,
I just wanna feel alive

*silent*
It's just what I do when I'm out so
