Taking Everything

This fever on my mind

I'm burning down inside

My luck may never change

Or so it seems that way

I know in seven years

This curse will disappear

Where has my ladder gone?

I feel like I've been robbed

In taking everything from me now


I'm making over what I hoped to be, I know

This is my only folder left with all these words

You've taken everything from me now

You take my license plates

You've taken everything



The place where I belong

You take all my songs

You've taken what I wanted

The few things that I kept

I turned around to help someone

And then you helped yourself

In taking everything from me now

I'm making over what I hoped to be, I know

This is my only folder left with all these words

You've taken everything from me no

So take away the skin

You scratch until you win

And in this lottery

What is the prize for me?

I'd give you anything

But I can't match this happiness

What's right or wrong

Where do I belong?

In taking everything from me now

I'm making over what I hoped to be, I know


This is my only folder left with all these words

You've taken everything from me now

Where has my ladder gone?

You take all my songs

Where do I belong?

In taking everything from me
