Take This Life
It's not so much the pain
It's more the actual knife
Pretending the picture is perfect
I cut myself to sleep
I close my eyes for a second
And meet a fragile soul
I scream to hide that I'm lonely
The echo calls my name
Oh, if I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see, make me be
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
The water drops just beg to hit me
Why now? Haven't rained for days
No time to play hide and seek
I call upon you to take me on
Break me down to pieces
Put me back, do it right this time
Struggling to fill this empty shell
Burn my efforts, in the end it means nothing
Oh, if I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see, make me be
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
These thoughts
Burn a hole in my heart
These thoughts
Will keep me feeling
These thoughts
Burn a hole in my heart
These thoughts
Will keep me feeling
Oh, if I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see, make me be
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
It's more the actual knife
Pretending the picture is perfect
I cut myself to sleep
I close my eyes for a second
And meet a fragile soul
I scream to hide that I'm lonely
The echo calls my name
Oh, if I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see, make me be
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
The water drops just beg to hit me
Why now? Haven't rained for days
No time to play hide and seek
I call upon you to take me on
Break me down to pieces
Put me back, do it right this time
Struggling to fill this empty shell
Burn my efforts, in the end it means nothing
Oh, if I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see, make me be
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
These thoughts
Burn a hole in my heart
These thoughts
Will keep me feeling
These thoughts
Burn a hole in my heart
These thoughts
Will keep me feeling
Oh, if I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make me see, make me be
Make me understand you're there for me
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life, I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
