Take your cautionary tales
Take your incremental gain
And all the sychophantic games
And throw ’em all away
Burn your TV in your yard [5]
Gather ’round it with your friends
And warm your hands upon the fire
And start again
Take the story you’ve been sold
The lies that justify the pain [10]
The guilt that weighs upon your soul
And throw ’em all away
Tear up that calandar you bought
And throw the pieces to the sky
Confetti falling down like rain [15]
Like a parade to usher in your life
Take the dreams that should have died
The ones that kept you lying awake
When you should been alright
And throw ’em all away [20]
With the time I waste on the life I never had
I could’ve turned myself into a better man
There is nothing you can buy
There is nothing you can say
To fill the hole inside your heart [25]
So throw it all away
Won’t fill the hole inside your heart
Help me to empty out this house
The wool I gathered all these days
And thought I couldn’t do without [30]
And throw ’em all away
