I'm feeling reckless tonight So I think I will go for a night drive Feel the tears flood my eyes So I think I will drive on the wrong side Can you see how it ends? My car set ablaze on the river bend All my thoughts pushed aside Like it's quiet again for the last time Don't turn around if you can't bare to see The rain that can fall when I'm buried beneath I'm not made of stone and I'm not a machine The weight of the world is too much for me to hold My paper heart will fold If I last through the night Could you tell me again I'll be alright? On the surface, it seems I'm collected and calm when you need me Do you really wanna see The forest hidden through the trees? When it's quiet again for the last time So don't turn around if you can't bare to see The rain that can fall when I'm buried beneath I'm not made of stone and I'm not a machine The weight of the world is too much for me to hold My paper heart will fold It's safer if I don't reply Stay locked up for weeks at a time 'Cause nothing can hurt me if I Wait 'til the chaos collides It's safer if I don't reply Stay locked up for weeks at a time 'Cause nothing can hurt me if I So don't turn around if you can't bare to see The rain that can fall when I'm buried beneath I'm not made of stone and I'm not a machine The weight of the world is too much for me to hold The world won't need to know Won't let you get too close My paper heart will fold

I, I get lost in a fever like I'm Rolling dice on the pavement now And I, I could tell you every evening It's just nothing more than a thought in my mind And I, I've been strolling these streets like I'm walking around in some kind of dream I can't help wondering at the feeling that we'll Never know if we don't say what we mean 'Cause you Steal my heart away Every time Right down the line Take it all the way Turn and run away Steal my heart away I see a light against the evening and it's Pointing me to a place in your heart I, I can only be an answer if it's What you find when you take it apart I, I've been calling out the words but I can't Make it sound like it ought to be I can't help wondering at the feeling that we'll Never know if we don't say what we mean 'Cause you Steal my heart away Every time Right down the line Take it all the way Turn and run away Steal my heart away I get lost in a fever Like a rolling dice I can't shake the feeling I've been calling out the words But they don't come out right Still you come Steal my heart away Every time Right down the line Take it all the way Turn and run away Steal my heart away Steal my heart away You steal it like you need it, baby Steal my heart away I get lost in Steal my heart away You steal it like you need it, baby Steal my heart away I can't shake the feeling

You found me all alone You helped me build a home I had tried before Couldn't pick myself off of the floor And then you came Whispered my name You found me You found me in a dream Tangled, lost at sea I had tried before Always found myself looking for more But then you came Whispered my name You found me You found me all alone You helped me build a home I had tried before Couldn't pick myself off of the floor And then you came Whispered my name You found me

I tried to be happy i tried to be free I tried to accept you accepting me And i tried to escape the fate awaiting me And take times loose from my neck so i can breathe And this could be Just for fun, just for kicks Cause i've had one too many drinks And this heart cannot be fixed Cause i follow fear like faith And i'll dig until the day my life is saved My life is saved Saved Well i played up my virtue and hid my vice I'd only show you naughty if you first showed me nice Cause i thought i knew what a woman's work was I kept from view what you wanted most It was fun playing god And this could be Just for fun, just for kicks Cause i've had one too many drinks And this heart cannot be fixed Cause i follow fear like faith And i'll dig until the day my life is saved My life is saved Saved And this could be Just for fun, just for kicks Cause i've had one too many drinks And this heart cannot be fixed Cause i follow fear like faith And i'll dig until the day my life is saved My life is saved Saved Cause i follow fear like faith And i'll dig until the day my life is saved My life is saved Saved

We meet at the Broken Spoke Restaurant and Lounge I lit your cigarette then you wrote your number down. On the inside of a matchbook that was laying on the bar And a fire started burning somewhere in my heart I didn't see it coming, guess I didn't read the signs I just never thought you'd leave me after all this time. But today when I came home my key was hollow in the door And there was nothing but a worn out book of matches on the floor You took the bed; you took the dishes and the car And you broke my trust and you took advantage of my heart And you left me here with empty rooms and walls with holes, scars and scratches, If I find the strength to burn your memory down At least you left the matches. The color is old and faded; the cover's worn and stained I can still make out the numbers and the heart beside your name Until tonight they'd only lit a single cigarette Now one by one I'm striking them to help me to forget And everybody at the broken spoke They all thought my crazy story was a joke Now they're all out in the parking lot Staring at the smoke You took the bed; you took the dishes and the car And you broke my trust and you took advantage of my heart And you left me here with empty rooms of walls and holes, scars and scratches Now I found the strength to burn your memory down At least you left the matches. Baby all that's left of our love now is ashes Thank god you left the matches
