You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done
Can't seem to keep the faith, as if that's all I need to do
I'd rather walk away than take what belongs to you
You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done
Some words will cut you down like you were only in the way
Why should I stand ths ground, it won't hurt as much to say
You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done
Sometimes we're blinded by the very thing we need to see
I finally realized that you need it more than you need me
You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done
The damage has all been done
