Lyrics of Break Free by Ariana Grande, Zedd

verse

If you want it, take it
I should have said it before
Tried to hide it, fake it
I can′t pretend anymore (ooh)

pre-chorus

I only want to die alive
Never by the hands of a broken heart (ooh)
I don't wanna hear you lie tonight
Now that I′ve become who I really am

chorus

This is the part when I say I don't want ya
I'm stronger than I′ve been before
This is the part when I break free
′Cause I can't resist it no more
This is the part when I say I don′t want ya
I'm stronger than I′ve been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can′t resist it no more

verse

You were better, deeper
I was under your spell, yeah
Like a deadly fear, yeah, babe
On the highway to hell, yeah (ooh)

pre-chorus

I only want to die alive
Never by the hands of a broken heart (ooh)
I don't wanna hear you lie tonight
Now that I've become who I really am

chorus

This is the part when I say I don′t want ya
I′m stronger than I've been before
This is the part when I break free
′Cause I can't resist it no more
This is the part when I say I don′t want ya
I'm stronger than I′ve been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more

bridge

No more, baby, ooh
Thought of your body, I came alive
It was lethal, it was fatal
In my dreams, it felt so right
But I woke up every time
Ooh, baby

chorus

This is the part when I say I don′t want ya
I′m stronger than I've been before (ooh)
This is the part when I break free
′Cause I can't resist it no more
This is (this is -) the part when I say I don′t want ya
I'm stronger than I′ve been before
This is the part when I break free
'Cause I can't resist it no more
