[Verse 1] I ain't bother no one Left me for pieces Let the dogs have it Let the crows nibble Your love left me bitter Felt so much better Once the room cleared Once I felt the air to breathe [Chorus] Let the dogs have it, let 'em tear it apart Let the crows come nibble on what's left of my heart You walked out the door, didn't look back once Now I'm breathin' free in the ruins you left, hun Bitter, yeah I'm bitter, but damn it feels good No more chains, no more lies, just me in the woods [Verse 2] Shadows in the corner where your smile used to be Echoes of your voice still hauntin' me But the poison's drainin', slow but sure Ain't chasin' ghosts no more [Chorus] Let the dogs have it, let 'em tear it apart Let the crows come nibble on what's left of my heart You walked out the door, didn't look back once Now I'm breathin' free in the ruins you left, hun Bitter, yeah I'm bitter, but damn it feels good No more chains, no more lies, just me in the woods [Bridge] ( slower, stripped down, maybe harmonica or lone guitar ) Thought I'd break, thought I'd crawl But the hurt turned to fire, burned it all Ain't no comin' back from this kind of gone I'm risin' from ashes while you sing your wrong [Final Chorus - bigger, more defiant] Let the dogs have it, let the crows take their fill Your love was a cage, now I'm over the hill Breathin' that clean air, no more holdin' still Bitter but better, yeah, this is my will [Outro] ( fade with slide guitar, echoing) Let the dogs have it... Let the crows nibble... I'm free... I'm free...
