Lyrics
Dragging back the only guilt free cigarette that I’ve had in a while Are you trying to forget the reason that you quit before smoke went out of style And I’m going out at nights picking losing fights with bigger tougher guys ‘Cause you’re hoping if you lose, it might leave you confused and drive me from your mind But no matter what I do to repent and self abuse, and hide it inside, I still don’t feel alive So go ahead and take this heart away, go ahead and take it it’s not mine I don’t want it for the rest of time, if you’re not in my life Go ahead and take this heart away, go ahead and drag it ‘cross the floor ‘Cause I don’t wanna use it any more, just leave me hollow inside And I see people laughing, singing, clapping, enjoying their lives Children playing, swinging swaying, chasing butterflies And all these things I view, make me think of you and I want that back, but if it’s too late for that Just go ahead and take this heart away, go ahead and take it it’s not mine I don’t want it for the rest of time, if you’re not in my life Go ahead and take this heart away, go ahead and drag it ‘cross the floor ‘Cause I don’t wanna use it any more, just leave me hollow inside No matter how I fight it , I’m growing kinda tired of holding it together And though part of me is gone, I keep on hanging on but if it doesn’t get better Just go ahead and take this heart away, go ahead and take it it’s not mine Take this heart away, go ahead and drag it ‘cross the floor I don’t wanna use it any more, just leave me hollow inside Take this heart away, leave me hollow inside Go on and take this heart away, leave me hollow inside
