Throwing It All Away

from Slackipedia by The Slack 5

lyrics

I wanted this
I needed this
Now I would give anything to give it away
So much is left unspoken, nothing more to say

Circus clowns
All gather 'round
Taking it in turn to laugh at my misfortune
Now the days are shorter I'm dancing to a different tune.

Now you turn your back upon me
And you won't hear a word I say
My head falls to the pavement
As you begin to walk away

What if I'm right
What if you're wrong
What if everything that's broken can't be undone?
What if you do
What do you say?
Are we throwing it all away?
Are we throwing it all away?

You're a loaded gun
I'm a dying sun
There's a bullet in my brain and now I'm slowly dying
I heard you're up for sale
And I'm looking but I'm not buying
Put to the test
I did my best
Once upon a time I could have done much better
Now my fuse is shorter
I'm wishing that I never met her

And now you turn your back upon me
And you won't hear a word I say
My head falls to the pavement
And I begin to walk away

What if you're right
What if I'm wrong.
What if everything that's broken can't be undone?
What do you do,
what do you say?
Are you throwing it all away?
Are we throwing it all away?
