You can't live to make mistakes
When you're dead and gone
With your heart held in my head
The memory of your bloodstains
All over broken picture frames

How could you tell me that I was wrong? (I was wrong)
When you would have done the same
Toy with emotions until they're gone (You were wrong)
You would have done the same

I stole your heart
Ripped it out
And smashed it on this floor
You have no need for such a useless thing
Broken, forever more.

Life after this
There's no such thing
You replace my thoughts
With these painful memories
Now you're gone
You're 9 feet under
To far down to ever uncover

How could you tell me that I was wrong? (I was wrong)
When you would have done the same
Toy with emotions until they're gone (you were wrong)
You would have done the same

I stole your heart
Ripped it out
And smashed it on this floor
You have no need for such a useless thing
Broken, forever more.

Leave it all to me
I won't forget about you
Leave it all to me
I'll steal your heart!

Leave it all to me
I won't forget about you
Leave it all to me
I'll steal your heart!

I stole your heart
Ripped it out
And smashed it on this floor
You have no need for such a useless thing
Broken, forever more.

(I stole your heart
Ripped it out
And smashed it on this floor
You have no need for such a useless thing
Broken, forever more.)

Now you're gone
You're 9 feet under
To far down to ever uncover

Now you're gone
You're 9 feet under
To far down to ever uncover

    General Comment:I think this is a guy slightly mocking the girl telling him he ripped out her heart. Even though it was her own fault in the first place.

    General Comment:I really like this song.
    It's so much better than their other shit.
    Kinda reminds me of the "What it is to Burn" cd by Finch.
    Top-notch emo shit.
    Wish that emo was still like this.

    General Comment:Haha, I don't agree. It doesn't matter what gender. It depends on the person. And yes, this band is great. I love this song. I love the guitar in the beginning.

    General Comment:its about a guy smashing his girlfriends heart against the wall becase she hurt him...this should be about a girl smashing a guys heart against the wall because he hurt her cuz guys do most of the hurting and i think most girls can agree with me on that!

    General Comment:the actual lyric to the first verse in the song is "heart held in my hand"...not "head".
    and this song is definitly one of the bands best. the drums over just vocals to begin the verses are amazing.
    the song is literally just about a relationship gone awry.
    nothing new, yet, they do it wonderfully in this song.
