Well you thought you knew the reason
You were put on this earth
But when it came to living
Your reasons only hurt

I know you had your dreams but
Circumstances change
How you gonna deal with this new pain

Will you suffer through the torment till you begin to see
The light beyond the breakout or your own tragedy
Either way you'll know just what you're gonna be
You can't take it all back

You've seen the death of beauty
The starting point of shame
The bitterness of never
Becoming that which you had hoped to be

Old and covered over
By some other skin
Toughened on that outside and within

Like the pathetic mother who has to much to drink
And give's her night's confession over the kitchen sink
Forgetting that her daughter can hear more than she thinks
She can't take it all back, can't take it all back... she's already given up

How is it you thought your life was gonna change
Your heart would beat much slower
And sadness would seem strange
Because you're worth a Fortune
And strangers know your name
Don't make it all that

Or what about the moment
You turned and let her go
Cause you believed your future
Existed in the show
Your future never came wrapped in such a pretty bow
And you can't take it all back
Can't take it all back
Please take it all back
