Lyrics
I’m going to leave here with nothing Empty handed I fear But the absence brings that something In my mind’s eye I see it so clear

This I all that I’ve got Just remember to stop And love all the ones around you Cause they won’t stick Cause they won’t stick around forever

Stand back You made it a bad habit of Showing us that you just don’t care Tell me now Did you think you had that something? Harder than the floor This heart’s hit rock bottom

It’s just too easy to plot your revenge Than to finally accept The flaws and then mend them This thing that we got This fire don’t stop We burn down the house around us Don’t cut off your nose to spite your face

Stand back You made this a bad habit of Showing us that you just don’t care Tell me now Did you think we had that something? Harder than before This heart’s hit rock bottom

Your eyes pan over her body Cold as ice there will never be somebody As good as she was You’ll never feel at home

Stand back You made this a bad habit of Showing us that you just don’t care Tell me now Did you think we had that something? Harder than before This heart’s hit rock bottom
