Music by glen phillips and toad. lyrics by glen phillips.
Take your cautionary tales Take your incremental gain And all the sychophantic games And throw 'em all away
Burn your tv in your yard And gather 'round it with your friends And warm your hands upon the fire And start again
Take the story you've been told The lies that justify the pain The guilt the weighs upon your soul And throw 'em all away
Tear up the calendar you've bought And throw the pieces to the sky Confetti falling down like rain Like a parade to usher in your life Take the dreams that should have died The ones that kept you lying awake When you should've been all right And throw 'em all away
With the time I waste on the life I never had I could've turned myself into a better man
'cause there ain't nothing you can buy And there is nothing you can save To fill the whole inside your heart So throw it all away Won't fill the whole inside your heart
Help me empty out this house The wool I've gathered all these days And thought I couldn't do without And throw it all away
