Song lyrics

Send "Carve Your Heart Out Yourself" ringtones to your cell

Carve your heart out yourself 
Hopelessness is your cell 
Since you've drawn out these lines 
Are you protected from trying times? 

Man, it takes a silly girl to lie about the dreams she has 
Lord, it takes a lonely one to wish that she had never dreamt at all 
Oh look now, there you go with hope again 
Oh, you're so sure I'll be leaving in the end 

Dig your ditch deep enough 
To keep you clear of the sun 
You've been burned more than once 
You don't think much of trust 

Man, it takes a silly girl to lie about the dreams she has 
Lord, it takes a lonely one to wish that she had never dreamt at all 
Oh look now, there you go with hope again 
But I'll be sure your secret is safe with me 
Oh, you're so sure I'll be leaving in the end 
Treating me like I'm already gone

But I'm not, I will stay where you are always 
I will stay, I will stay, I will stay (all of now) 
[repeat to fade out]

92 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This song is tops when it comes to lyrical flow with the beat. Hard to say you don't know someone (or have been that way yourself) when you hear what he is talking about here..match that with the rhythem and you simply have a great song!!
