And I know everyone's talking
They say I'm not the same
But I can't say that I sold my soul
'Cause I've got bills to pay
And I know everyone's changing
But something's happening to me
'Cause I don't scream anymore if I die in my dreams
When I look in the mirror, I'm not sure who I see
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
So I've got to get away
I'm getting out of this town
'Cause my shadow here's a black dog
And it follows me around
Everywhere I go
In everything I see
He's darkening my days, oh, and he's staring back at me
And he stops me going where I want to be
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
And I get so scared of the feelings in my head
I hope you're there to be answering my lifeline
Hope you're there, hope you're there
And I get so scared of the feelings in my head
I hope you're there to be answering my lifeline
Hope you're there, hope you're there
And I get so scared of the feelings in my head
I work too hard to be living on the breadline
Almost there, almost there
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
'Cause I'm a shell of what I used to be
I'm a slave to the stage so the world can see me
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
Throw it all away, throw it all away, throw it all away
