Empty Out the House (Throw It All Away) Songtext
von Jules Shear

I thought that you were right there with me
An undeniable kind of friend
I must remind myself at all times
That heaven starts as quickly as it ends

Well, nothing draws a crowd like an accident
And to the curious, I′ve got nothing to say
But I don't want to sink and I don′t want to think
That through my fault, I made the wrong mistake

We've emptied out the house and thrown it all away
Oh, emptied out the house and thrown it all away
Oh, emptied out the house and thrown it all away
Oh, emptied out the house and thrown it all away
All away

It must be my imagination
That makes me figure that there's still a way
Though I see emblems of destruction
They′re written all over your face today


There′s no way I'll convince you of your bad idea
As we wrestle for this gloomy prize
And it′s not that smile you fake, it's not the reaching ache
It′s not the hurt you get from our goodbyes

We've emptied out the house and thrown it all away
Oh, emptied out the house and thrown it all away
Oh, emptied out the house and thrown it all away
Oh, emptied out the house and thrown it all away
All away

Though from the start you said you were no good for me
I found myself admiring your waist
It was an instinct true, color an apple blue
And I begin to wonder about the taste

Please empty out the house and throw it all away
Oh, empty out the house and throw it all away
Oh, empty out the house and throw it all away
Oh, empty out the house and throw it all away

Oh, empty out the house
Oh, empty out the house
Ah, empty out the house
Ah, empty out the house


Oh, empty out the house and throw it all away
Oh, empty out the house and throw it all away
Oh, empty out the house and throw it all away
Oh, empty out the house
Ah, empty out the house
Ah, ah, ah
