Like the knife of a thief that's held
Close to the throat
I'm threatened by you and the cruel
Way you gloat

You once turned me on
Now it all seems so remote.

You broke me in pieces
You cherished each blow

The harder you hit me
The stronger I grow

I'll leave you tomorrow
Take my pride and I blow

You may break the skin but you can't kill the soul
I've had all I can take.
You may break the skin but you can't kill the soul
I've had all I can take.

I'm leaving tomorrow
I'm leaving tomorrow

I'm leaving
I've had all I can take.

Don't tell me you love me
Your tears are too late
Your trap was deception
And I took the bait
The animal in you
You can't keep at bay.

I'm not your possession to treat as you wish
Your silence will slowly destroy you each day
I'm leaving tomorrow
My love for life is great.

You may break the skin but you can't kill the soul
I've had all I can take.
You may break the skin but you can't kill the soul
I've had all I can take.

You may break the skin but you can't kill the soul
I've had all I can take.
You may break the skin but you can't kill the soul
I've had all I can take.

I'm leaving tomorrow
I'm leaving tomorrow

I'm leaving
Yes I'm leaving!

(I've had all I can take)
You broke me in pieces
You cherished each blow
The harder you hit me
The stronger I grow
I'll leave you tomorrow
Take my pride and I blow

You may break the skin but you can't kill the soul
I've had all I can take.
I'm leaving tomorrow
I'm leaving tomorrow
