Throw It All Away
And I know everyone's talking
They say I'm not the same
But I can't say that I sold my soul 'cause I got bills to pay
And I know everyone's changing
But something's happening to me
'Cause I don't scream anymore if I die in my dreams
And when I look in the mirror, oh, I'm not sure who I see
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
So I gotta get away
I'm getting out of this town
'Cause my shadow here's a black dog and it follows me around
Everywhere I go
In everything I see
He's darkening my days, oh, when he's staring back at me
And he stalks me going where I wanna be
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
(And I get so scared of the feelings in my head)
(I hope you're there to be answering my lifeline)
(Hope you're there, hope you're there)
And I get so scared of the feelings in my head
I hope you're there to be answering my lifeline
Hope you're there, hope you're there
And I get so scared and the feelings in my head
Are much too hard to be living on the breadline
Almost there, almost there
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
They say I'm not the same
But I can't say that I sold my soul 'cause I got bills to pay
And I know everyone's changing
But something's happening to me
'Cause I don't scream anymore if I die in my dreams
And when I look in the mirror, oh, I'm not sure who I see
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
So I gotta get away
I'm getting out of this town
'Cause my shadow here's a black dog and it follows me around
Everywhere I go
In everything I see
He's darkening my days, oh, when he's staring back at me
And he stalks me going where I wanna be
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
(And I get so scared of the feelings in my head)
(I hope you're there to be answering my lifeline)
(Hope you're there, hope you're there)
And I get so scared of the feelings in my head
I hope you're there to be answering my lifeline
Hope you're there, hope you're there
And I get so scared and the feelings in my head
Are much too hard to be living on the breadline
Almost there, almost there
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
