I'll go away

I'll go on my wordless way

Don't say anything

Say nothing, just leave me.



I've been merely, an actor

In your painful play.

But I feel too much to stay.

Just cast me out.



Pre chorus

You can have the dishes

You can have the jacked up car.

And take the book on meditation

I'll just take home what I brought,



Chorus

My, big painted velvet Elvis...



Well take it away

Take it all away

Don't leave anything

Leave nothing, except me



'cause I've been sadly misinformed

I thought it mattered a little more than this

I wish I was a thousand miles away...



Pre chorus/ chorus



Well I'm frozen here

Caged in silence

It's better that I

Regret these words

Than to stand aside

And watch your tragic

Storyline unfold...

Just let me go



Pre chorus/ chorus



Well you took my heart

And you took my soul

And you used me,

I've had plenty of that.

It gets harder and harder

And farther and farther

From what I need for me.
