Take This Life Songtext / Lyric

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 my fragile soul

I scream to hide that I'm lonely

The echo calls my name



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 rain drops just beg to hit me

Why now? It hasn't rained for days

No time to play hide-and-seek

I call on to 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 all my efforts

In the end it means nothing



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 free and



These thoughts

Burn a hole in my heart

These thoughts

Will keep me free and



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
