Throw It All Away Lyrics - Coil - Toad The Wet Sprocket

Take your cautionary tales 

And take your incremental gain 

And all the sycophantic games 

And throw 'em all away 

Burn your TV in your yard 

And gather 'round it with your friends 

And warm your hands upon the fire 

And start again 

Take the story you've been sold 

The lies that justify the pain 

The guilt the weighs upon your soul 

And throw 'em all away 

Tear up the calendar you've bought 

Throw the pieces to the sky 

Confetti falling down like rain 

Like a parade to usher in your life 

Take the dreams that should have died 

The ones that kept you lying awake 

When you should've been all right 

And throw 'em all away 

With the time I waste 

On the life I never had 

I could've turned myself 

Into a better man 

'Cause there ain't nothing you can buy 

There is nothing you can save 

To fill the hole inside your heart 

So throw it all away 

Won't fill the hole inside your heart 

Help me to empty out this house 

The wool I've gathered all these days 

And thought I couldn't do without 

And throw it all away
