Take these hands and break them off of my arms   Cause I'm tired of waging wars   And I'm done with this   Now it's killing me   I'm broken, defeated   But I'm not repeating (I'm not repeating)      These memories are stained in my mind   So won't you wash them away?   Away tonight      Take these hands and break them off of my arms   Cause I'm tired of holding on   To this black and blue heart   Broken and bruised now   In pieces on the floor      Now it's time to find   the strength to carry on   Will I carry on?      I'm not gonna give this up   I'm not gonna fade away   (I've lost my way, I've lost my will to fight)   I'm never gonna give this up   For now I'm just down and out
