Taking Everything Songtext
von Bob Mould

This fever on my mind / I′m burning down inside
My luck may never change / Or so it seems that way
I know in seven years / This curse will disappear
Where has my ladder gone? I feel like I've been robbed

In taking everything from me now
I′m making over what I hoped to be, I know
This is my only folder left with all these words
You've taken everything from me now

You take my license plates / You've taken everything
The place where I belong / You take all my songs
You′ve taken what I wanted / The few things that I kept
I turned around to help someone / And then you helped yourself


In taking everything from me now
I′m making over what I hoped to be, I know
This is my only folder left with all these words
You've taken everything from me now

So take away the skin / You scratch until you win
And in this lottery / What is the prize for me?
I′d give you anything / But I can't match this happiness
What′s right or wrong / Where do I belong?

In taking everything from me now
I'm making over what I hoped to be, I know
This is my only folder left with all these words
You′ve taken everything from me now

Where has my ladder gone? You take all my songs
Where do I belong?
In taking everything from me
