"Throw Yourself Away"
(Chad Kroeger / Nickelback)

Baby's born on a bathroom floor
Her mother prays that it'll never cry
But nothing's wrong, you've got your prom dress on
When they ask you'll say "It isn't mine"
You know they're gonna know you lied

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why the hell don't you throw yourself away?
You know they're gonna burn it down

[Chorus:]
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you out
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you
Why the hell don't you throw yourself away?
You know they're gonna burn it down

So keep the way you're feeling anonymous
And hide it all until the day you die
Your secret's safe, at least you thought it was
You can only keep it for a little while
And now you're terrified

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why the hell don't you throw yourself away?
You know they're gonna burn it down

[Chorus:]
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you out
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you
Why the hell don't you throw yourself away?
You know they're gonna burn it down

Baby's born on a bathroom floor
Her mother prays that it'll never cry
But nothing's wrong, you've got your prom dress on
When they ask you'll say "It isn't mine"

Damn you for thinking we would never know
And damn you for thinking we would never mind
Only reason that you made it this far
You never asked him, but you never tried

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why the hell don't you throw yourself away?
Why the hell don't you throw yourself away?
You know they're gonna burn it down

[Chorus:]
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you out
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you
Wash my hands of this
You notice how God ain't even helping you
Wash my hands of this
You notice how god ain't even helping you
Why the hell don't you throw yourself away?
You know they're gonna burn it down
