Cut It Away

[Chorus] Cut it away Somebody cut away this desperate heart Cut it away And help me find my way back to the start [Post-Chorus] Yeah Before I knew what I was looking for Yeah When we were lovers and nothing more [Verse 1] I wanted you (I wanted you) And I did everything that I could do (That I could do) To capture you (To capture you) I let you see (I let you see) The part of me (The part of me) You'd want to see (You'd want to see) A fantasy (A fantasy) I'm finding now (I'm finding now) I don't know how (I don't know how) To make it good (To make it good) I wish I could [Chorus] Cut it away This crazy longing for something more Cut it away The question I don't have an answer for [Post-Chorus] Why I hunger For something I can't see Cut it away The dream I wanted life to be [Chorus] I know I've got to let you go I know You should have left a long time ago— [Verse 2] Protected by the night Two cities lay Two hearts, two lives Connected by our sight Worlds away Two hearts, two lives Inspected by the light Two hearts, two cities in decay Two lives Repair them as we might Two hearts just go on crumbling Now come on [Chorus] Cut it away I want to cut away this thing inside Cut it away This thing that hid from you and schemed and lied I know I've got to let you go I know You should have left a long time ago Cut it away Somebody cut away this desperate heart Cut it away Before it tears my whole life apart I love you— I love you still I do— I always will
