I heard you say that words are deadly things
And I was surprised to find myself alive and breathing
I said I know it's tough, but I'm growing up
And your love it just ain't good enough
So I'm taking back my heart for me
I was lured into every word you speak
Yeah when I was young you could tie my tongue and weaken my knees
But the lines been drawn and I'm moving on, and another girl will come along
So I'm taking back my heart for me
This is the end of the road, this is where we part
You can keep all your memories but I'm taking my heart
Turns out being away is a wonderful way to be
I'm going back to the earth, back to open doors
Back to Beach Boys records and minor 4's.
Cause I'm taking back my heart for me
I heard you say that words are deadly things
So I was surprised to find myself alive and breathing
I said I know it's tough, but I'm growing up
And your love it just ain't good enough
So I'm taking back my heart
Said I'm taking back my heart
I'll be taking back my heart for me.
