Story Behind The Song
Formerly known as "Take My Love & Throw It Away", this song tells the story of how an ugly and utterly thoughtless remark made one night by a wonderfully crazy blond I was seeing, squeezed the final breath of life out of the most "tortured romance" I've ever experienced!
And just to rub the wound raw, she said it over a bottle of champagne while we were celebrating our one year anniversary together.
How this stormy relationship ever made it to the one year mark in the first place is beyond me, but that remark sealed the coffin for good.

Lyrics
VERSE 1
MY DAYS REFLECT THE SADNESS & THE GLARE OF MY PAIN
THE NIGHTS ARE DARK & LONELY & I'M TIRED OF THIS GAME
MY LADY LIED TO ME WHILE SHE SPREAD HER LOVE AROUND
IT STRUCK ME LIKE A BULLET AS MY HEART HIT THE GROUND
VERSE 1 BRIDGE
SHE SAID SHE NEVER WOULD AND I BELIEVED SHE NEVER EVER COULD
CHORUS 1
TAKE MY LOVE AND THROW IT AWAY
BURN MY SOUL YET ANOTHER DAY
PIERCE MY SPIRIT WITH YOUR POISON DARTS
TAKE YOUR DAGGER AND BLOODY MY HEART
VERSE 2
I GOT MYSELF IN DEEP I'LL HAVE TO DIG MY WAY OUT
SHE PROMISED SHE WOULD NEVER SHARE HER BODY ABOUT
I FEEL BETRAYED & ANGRY & I NEED TO LET HER GO, BUT IT
HURTS ME JUST TO THINK OF LIFE WITHOUT HER LOVELY GLOW
VERSE 2 BRIDGE
SHE SAID SHE NEVER WOULD BUT IN THE END I GUESS SHE REALLY COULD
CHORUS 2
TAKE MY LOVE AND THROW IT AWAY
BURN MY SOUL YET ANOTHER DAY
PIERCE MY SPIRIT WITH YOUR POISON DARTS
TAKE YOUR DAGGER AND BLOODY MY HEART
REPEAT CHORUS
