You can take away the pictures, leave me staring at the wall You can disconnect the telephone, so I never hear you call Try to erase all the memories, of the things we used to do If you could rip my heart out, I bet you wouldn't wanna do Take away all the sadness, all the darkness, every bit of pain And take away all the bad words, know the truth hurts, but better off this way If you walk out of my life, leave me here with nothing more to say Just take it all away, just take it all away Truth hurts, truth hurts You can say you never meant it, and take back what you gave to me Just pack up your possessions, and leave the stuff that I don't need You can empty out the bookshelf, and leave your keys at the door Don't forget to rip my heart out, cause I don't need it anymore Take it away, take it away I don't need this drama anymore Take it away, take it away This is not what I fight for Take away all the sadness, all the darkness, every bit of pain Take away all the bad words, know the truth hurts, but better off this way If you walk out of my life, leave me here with nothing more to say Just take it all away, just take it all away You can't leave me picking up the pieces that were once my life I don't know if we'll be able to make this right Don't blame yourself, it's not as if you didn't try If you're gonna walk away, I'm gonna be okay someday Take away all the sadness, all the darkness, every bit of pain Take away all the bad words, know the truth hurts, but better off this way If you walk out of my life, leave me here with nothing more to say Just take it all away, just take it all away *
