Keep smiling now.
You’ve done your job;
I think you should get out.
You’ve tied me up
and dragged me down.
There’s no looking back.
You strangle these words right out of my mouth.
I can’t go back; my mind's made up.
You strangle these words right out of my mouth.
This is where you had me
feeling empty.
It’s killing me:
words that you never told me.
It takes one spark to light the flame,
but I won’t wait for you.
You’ve got me wrapped in your noose tonight.
I won’t be home.
In your eyes I’ve fallen from the highest floor.
I can’t express enough what a fool I was
to ever let you get my love.
This is where you had me
feeling empty.
It’s killing me,
and breaking me down.
There is a hole
in my chest
where my heart used to beat.
It's been hollowed out
and broken down.
There’s no secret I can keep.
You’re tearing me apart, Lisa
Strangle these words right out of my mouth.
