Lyrics

now that i feel this way
what more can i do?
now that you feel this way
there's nothing left to do

now that i've gone astray
gone without a prayer
i have to die in vain
i won't admit i'm scared

show me away
throw me away
show me away
throw me away

now that i feel this way
what more can i do?
you know i'm empty now
but you claim you've been used
you gave me what you had
but i gave you far too much
you really need to feel
such an emptiness i know

show me away
throw me away
show me away
throw me away

that'll show me
you're my queen

now that i feel this way
what more can i do?
now that you feel this way
there's nothing left to do
now that i feel this way
what more can i do?
now that you feel this way
there's nothing left to do

show me away
throw me away
show me away
throw me away, hey, hey

away, hey, hey
now that i feel this way
now that i feel this way
hey, hey, hey
this way, hey, hey, hey

now that i feel this way
what more can i do?
what more can i do?
what more can i do?
can i do?
can i do?
