Hey, Heartbreak come on in
Not saying it's okay, to leave me in this state
Of shallow breathing
Stay way the hell away, for now I'm just okay
Quietly I'll wave,
But drive off screamin'
They say, I'm the one to blame
For all of my own pain
To make it go away I figured I'll just stop my heart from beating
I'll rip it out with care,
And tell it don't be scared
What I'm about to do wont seem like something new to you
I'll tie it to a chair
Inside a room somewhere, and I am all that's left once it beats itself to death
Head start, you run
I'll play dead and lead 'em back to you
This game, I won
Who needs a heart if you can steal one
I hate, the stupid games we played
I'll never make the same mistake
And for my final get away, I figure I'll just stop my heart from beating
I'll rip it out with care,
And tell it don't be scared
What I'm about to do wont seem like something new to you
I'll tie it to a chair
Inside a room somewhere, and I am all that's left once it beats itself to death
Head start, you run
I'll play dead and lead 'em back to you
This game, I won
Who needs a heart if you can steal one
I wont be, I wont be another tragedy
Come catch me. Come catch me collecting casualties
