[Verse]
Take the car and the keys
I don't care
Take the house
Take the worn-out chair
Take the photos
The memories
The mess
But leave me with my pride
Nothing less
[Chorus]
You can take everything
Rip it apart
Leave the walls bare
Empty my heart
But please leave me with my fucking dignity
Hope in my pocket
A cigarette for me
[Verse 2]
Take the watch
It's never on time
Take the songs
I don’t need the rhyme
Take the dreams I once held so tight
But don’t touch my last flicker of fight
[Chorus]
You can take everything
Rip it apart
Leave the walls bare
Empty my heart
But please leave me with my fucking dignity
Hope in my pocket
A cigarette for me
[Bridge]
Strip the colors
Paint it all black
Take the sun
I won’t ask for it back
But don’t steal the ember that keeps me sane
Don’t leave me drowning in acid rain
[Chorus]
You can take everything
Rip it apart
Leave the walls bare
Empty my heart
But please leave me with my fucking dignity
Hope in my pocket
A cigarette for me
