Lyrics

They say that words can be used as weapons
I see that mine have taken me down
How can it be that with just three you're suddenly not around
You're so attractive when you're smiling there at me
but now I think you share that gaze
With another lover that you've hidden on the side - you don't want to hurt me..
you just don't want me along for the ride

can I take it back?
can I put those words into a jar
I'd throw them out into the yard and you'd never hear them again
Can I take it back?
Oh if it meant that I would see you not the mask
I'd have the real you
you'd never hear them again
Can I take it back

The clock is ticking and it's weighing down on me
I do not want to waste your time
but now I see that with all this running around
I am wasting mine
so I will go and I'll be happy
with what I'm not and what I am
mmm
I will reconcile
to have your smile
I'll let you go and I'll take me back
can I take it back?

can I take it back?
can I put those words into a jar
I'd throw them out into the yard and you'd never hear them again
Can I take it back?
Oh if it meant that I would see you not the mask
I'd have the real you
you'd never hear them again
Can I take it back

Can I take it
back back back oh can I take it
back back back oh can I take it
back back back oh can I take it
back back can I take it bacK?

can I take it back?
can I put those words into a jar
I'd throw them out into the yard and you'd never hear them again
Can I take it back?
Oh if it meant that I would see you not the mask
I'd have the real you
you'd never hear them again
Can I take it back
