Break Away
Breaking Free: Steve Ramone's Anthem of Liberation
Lyrics
She's got a thing or two about her
She possesses distinctive qualities or characteristics.
She's got a smile that lights the sky
Her smile is radiant and uplifting.
Still strings unravel letting go the curtain
Despite past difficulties, she is letting go and moving forward.
There's no such thing as perfect but she tries
Perfection is unattainable, but she strives for it.
I try to tell myself I'm happy

I'm not trying to call that girl a phony
