Il testo della I'm taking it back. i'm taking them all back

Youll never hear the end of this
Youll never see the likes of me
And everything that i expected
Isnt what i thought itd be

If i had the time to stop and think
Im settled or is this a dream?
Its greener on the other side
But nothings ever what it seems

Brick by brick ive built this up for you
Todays empires will be tomorrows ashes

Ive lived by your example
Died with my ideals
Ive laid to rest 10 years of where ive been

Im taking back what wasnt yours in the first place
Youll never see a glimpse of it again

What exactly did you have in mind?
What direction we going in?
You told me to reach for the sun
When i did it only burned my skin

Now im going to put this back
Together, slowly piece by piece
I salvaged what i had in hand
And let go what i couldnt keep

Brick by brick ive built this up for you
Todays empires will be tomorrows ashes

Ive lived by your example
Died by my ideals
Ive laid to rest 10 years of where ive been

Im taking back what wasnt yours in the first place
Youll never see a glimpse of it again

This time its on my terms
Whatever happens here
At least i can see myself
Even though it isnt clear
Uncertain of what comes next

I like it better that way

Ive lived by your example
Died by my ideals
Ive laid to rest 10 years of where ive been

Now im taking back what wasnt yours in the first place
Youll never see a glimpse of it again
