[Verse 1] Shedding light and standing to a draw Jumping serpent into the belly raw Paint chips cracking and flaking off the brain That snap back and travel in the pain [Pre-Chorus] Get out (Something inside you) Get out (Living like I do) [Chorus] Nobody breaks you like you and your heart No one can write 'em no self-hating card Don't hate the author who doctors a chart Nobody breaks you like you and your heart [Verse 2] Guess who's crying and bringing lonely tones Shipwreck's rising and there's no one at the bow No small comfort taken with the news It grows silent, fill yourself anew [Pre-Chorus] Get out (Something inside you) Get out (Living like I do) Get out (Something inside you) Get out (Living like I do) [Chorus] Nobody breaks you like you and your heart No one can write 'em no self-hating card Don't hate the author who doctors a chart Nobody breaks you like you and your heart [Instrumental Bridge] [Chorus] Nobody breaks you like you and your heart No one can write 'em no self-hating card Don't hate the author who doctors a chart Nobody breaks you like you and your heart

And now that it's all over The birds can nest again I'll only snow when the sun comes out I'll shine only when it starts to rain And if you want a drink Just squeeze my hand And wine will flow into the land And feed my lambs For I am a mirror I can reflect the moon I will write songs for you I'll be your silver spoon I'm sorry, I took your time I am the poem that doesn't rhyme Just turn back a page I'll waste away, I'll waste away I'll waste away, I'll waste away I'll waste away, I'll waste away
