Break Away is an unidentified soul song discovered on an unlabeled master-tape recorded at Stereosonic Studios, a Chicago, Illinois-based recording studio that operated from the late 1960s to the early 1970s.

| Presumed Lyrics |
| (Verse 1)
Sometimes I feel like I don't have any love No one cares for me, I have no one to speak of Sometimes I feel like my heart is just a toy And each time you break it, it seemed to bring you so much joy (Chorus) I've got to break away From the sadness that you bring I've got to break away And find life's meaning I've got to break away From the sadness that you bring I've got to break away And find life's meaning (Verse 2) It seems to make you happy, to see me this way But your happiness is my sorrow, growing stronger every day I don't know how, but I've got to find someone new Someone to make me happy, which you could never do (Chorus) I've got to break away From the sadness that you bring I've got to break away And find life's meaning I've got to break away From the sadness that you bring I've got to break away And find life's meaning (Verse 3) Your love it seems, is oh so wrong for me All that you do is bring me misery So I'll just go although I want to stay But i just can't go on trying to live my life this way (Chorus) I've got to break away From the sadness that you bring I've got to break away And find life's meaning I've got to break away From the sadness that you bring I've got to break away And find life's meaning I've got to break away (I'm going to break, break away, I've got to leave today) From the sadness that you bring Break away And find life's meaning Break away (I've got to break, break away, I've got to leave today) From the sadness that you bring Break away And find life's meaning (Outro) I'm going to break away |
