Here is the classic story of the woman involved with a married co-worker and coming to the realization that there is only one way to end it&#8230; to literally cut out that piece of her heart. Of course I put a bunch of my own feelings and\u00a0experiences\u00a0into the song having myself fallen for a co-worker who managed to go months (and a few dates) before telling me she had a boyfriend. This song dates back to 1998 and even though I wrote it on an acoustic and performed it a few times solo, I knew its true\u00a0essence\u00a0was a hard rock song. For some reason (and honestly I really don&#8217;t know what inspired me) I began recording this around the same time I was writing and recording both &#8220;Daisy&#8221; and &#8220;Don&#8217;t Be Afraid&#8221;. I had taught myself to play slide guitar for &#8220;The Biggest Loser&#8221; and thought that I might again try it for &#8220;Cut It Out&#8221; and it sounded great. It sat for a year or two and when I was hard at work on the other songs for the CD , I came back to it, added the 335 guitar part, came up with the harmony and lastly dubbed the synth part to just add something a little different.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Lyrics:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong style=\"font-size: medium;\">Cut it Out<\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She said she\u2019d never let it happen again<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Fall in love with a married man<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">But how could she know<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0when it all began<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">And words were locked behind<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0an emotional dam<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Chorus 1<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">That piece of her heart<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0where there was no doubt<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She\u2019s got to cut it out<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">No need to weep, no need to pout<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She\u2019ll just cut it out<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">An office romance,<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">she\u2019d been there before<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Secret kisses behind closed doors<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">They\u2019d go for coffee,<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">do lunch downtown<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Would he lift her up or let her down?<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Chorus 2<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">That piece of her heart<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">slowly filled with doubt<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">So she\u2019ll just cut it out<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">No need to cry, no need to pout<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She\u2019ll just cut it out<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She\u2019d heard her name, seen her face<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">But no ring, no photos anyplace<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Nine months went by<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">without the words \u201cmy wife\u201d<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">But when they came she took out a knife<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She\u2019ll cut it out<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Just a piece of her heart<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She\u2019ll cut it out<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She didn\u2019t need that part<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She\u2019ll cut it out<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Where his name had been<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0Cut out that tumor growing within<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">One last chance,<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">they took a walk by the bay<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She had so many things<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">she wanted to say<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Let him know how she feels,<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">let him know that she cares<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">She didn\u2019t have the heart<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0to cut the love that they shares<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Chorus 1 &amp; 2<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">A piece of her heart drops into the bay<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Drifts through the Golden Gate<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0and just floats away\u2026<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">VC<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">7\/9\/98<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to a page all about &#8220;Cut It Out&#8221; Click on the arrow to activate the exfm player: \u00a0Cut It Out Read below for credits, the story, and lyrics.
