I can't seem to shake the shadow
That's stapled at my feet
I feeled it oh so many times and now
It feels like just a part of me
That even surgery won't fix
Oh yeah...

Does it have a mind of its own'
Am I giving it ideas'
Does it grow like cancer every time i turn my heart
Away from you'
Cause that's what Do
So well...

Lay me to waste
my heart is a crowded place
There's only room for one
Lay me to waste
My history's in the way
of what I must become

I feel your freedom fighting
To detonate my soul
Your love on the trigger my resolve is holding on
To save the things
Like what i used to be
For so long...

Your soul is screaming at me
My ears are hard to tame
They only listen to what they want to hear
And you is just the start of it
Cause then I must admit
That I'm alone

Lay me to waste
my heart is a crowded place
There's only room for one
Lay me to waste
My history's in the way
of what I must become

Old ways make your face unclear
And I do it if my old self were decent-ly

Your love on the trigger
Your love on the trigger
