Take It from Me


Lonely thoughts that fog my window
I can see the breeze but feel no air
You lie sleeping, youth unknowing
This growing feeling creeping on me
I've made promises I can't keep

Take it from me

Down frosted streets an empty car drives
Been broken down, well covered up
Past the point we know where hope is
But please, you better take it from me
The things you do make life worth living

Take it from me
Take it from me

I want you to wake up free now
And feel the cold wind on your face
Another life, hope you'd forgive me
You know I only want it for you
But nature's beauty stole my thunder

Take it from me, take it from me
Take it from me, take it from me

Take it from me, take it from me
Take it from me, take it from me

(Take it from me)
When you know what you've done and there is nobody left
(Take it from me)
It'll take you and fight you and rip you apart
(Take it from me)
When you're down and you're out and your life's lost its worth
(Take it from me)
It'll make you and break you, you'll see who you are
(Take it from me)
And your bones, they start shaking
(Take it from me)
You never will make it so I travel dirt paths down to the cliffside
(Take it from me)
Where you won't be near me, or able to see me
(Take it from me)
Or hear me

Take it from me, take it from me
Take it from me, take it from me
Take it from me, take it from me
Take it from me, take it from me

I've made promises I can't keep
