Dashboard Confessional - Carve Your Heart Out Yourself Lyrics

Artist: Dashboard Confessional

Album: a mark a mission a brand a scar

  • Songwriters: Christopher Carrabba

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 leavin' in the end

Dig a 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 leavin' in the end
Treatin' 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

I will stay, I will stay, I will stay
I will stay, I will stay, I will stay
