Additional information
First mentioned by Matt during KROQ's interview on The Kevin & Bean Show on February 15th, 2018. Matt said that it is one of the band's favourites. The title first appeared in the Something Human music video, during the closing shot, on a car licence plate falling on the ground. The same shot was also used as the opening in the music video for The Dark Side.
Bellamy described the song as "Rock-electro-synth-map-ish-ish".
Lyrics
I have lived with darkness, for all my life
I've been deceived You'd be afraid If you could feel my pain
And if you could see the things I am able to see Break me out, break me out, let me see Break me out, break me out, set me free
I hail from the darkness for all my life I've been deceived You'd be scared Living with my despair
And if you could feel the things I am able to feel Break me out, break me out, let me see Break me out, break me out, set me free Break me out, break me out, let me see Break me out, break me out, set me free
Save me from the darkside Break me out, break me out, set me free
