lyrics

Take the bed, the mattress and the frame
Take the shelves it’s all the same 
Every picture, every frame
Take it all away 

Take the lamp 
The coffee table, the tv stand 
Take the soft light that I loved you in 
Might as well take all the oxygen
Right out of the room 

(Chorus)
You don’t want to make a scene You wanna cut things clean 
Pack all your things, (time to loom) 
You wanna cut the chord I don’t want to beg for more
What am i to do
With all this empty room? 

Take the books I never read 
The notes in the margins, clothes in the closet
I don’t need the mirror on the wall 
Cause I lost my reflection
Needed your attention 
Tell me what I want to hear 

Take the ceiling
Cause the walls are caving in 
And i need a sky to fly into
Before the floorboards finally give
And while your at it take the oceans
Cause i can’t bare the notion
Of ever diving in again 

You don’t want to make a scene I don’t wanna make believe
You’re coming home soon
You wanna cut the chord I don’t wanna beg for more
But what have I to lose
Just an empty room
