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 pictures
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.
