Took My Heart Out - Dax

I took my heart out, I don't wanna use it anymore
'Cause one more heartbreak will cost me, and baby I can't afford
To spend my time and not have you value what's in store
So if you wanna love me then go 'head and grab it off the floor

There's one thing that I know, it's that I deserve better
Unconditional love, peace, patience, trust, something that is forever
Someone who takes my kindness and doesn't see it as weakness
Then try to tear me down, make my mind run 'round and act like I don't feel it
Girl, I'm not against love
I just can't let my heart bleed like that again
So I'm closed off inside my head
Where I take my thoughts and I pretend that

I took my heart out, I don't wanna use it anymore (Not anymore)
'Cause one more heartbreak will cost me, and baby I can't afford (I can't afford)
To spend my time and not have you value what's in store (Value what's in store)
So if you wanna love me then go 'head and grab it off the floor

Grab it off the floor, and don't be mad
I'm broken, troubled from my past
I gave my all, only got half
That pressure made my heart attack
I'm emotionally scarred
Loving me gon' be hard
I built up all these walls
'Cause they help me to guard
Protect me from the pain
Don't wanna have to restart
I would rather be numb
Then feel it ripping apart
Now I'm using my brain
'Cause I gotta be smart
Plenty fish in the sea
Can't be swimming with shark
I was looking for love
But couldn't see in the dark
I would aim for the moon
Then try to grab on a star
And that's why I'm at war
Can't love no more in this world, I accept who we are
I'll play my part and live my life without my heart

I took my heart out, I don't wanna use it anymore (Not anymore)
'Cause one more heartbreak will cost me, and baby I can't afford (I can't afford)
To spend my time and not have you value what's in store (Value what's in store)
So if you wanna love me then go 'head and grab it off the floor
