And all I want is all that you possess
And all I want is all that I can't get
And I can't be, for the things I see
And the things I want and I long to be
And I crave much more than I'd ever need
And I take it all just the way I please

Take these thoughts
Put ‘em in your basement
Take these thoughts
They're heavy and they're old
Don't let ‘em steal your soul

And all you got is all that you deserve
And all you got isn't of real worth
And I can't breathe for the things I see
And the things I want and I long to be
And I crave much more than I'd ever need
And I take it all just the way I please

Take these thoughts
Put ‘em in your basement
Take these thoughts
And send them down the track
Make sure they don't come back

Take these thoughts
Take these thoughts
Take these thoughts
And if they come back ‘round
Just burn the whole place down
