Inflames - Take This Life lyrics

rate me

It's not so much the pain<br />

It's more the actual knife<br />

Pretending the picture is perfect<br />

I cut myself to sleep<br />

<br />

I close my eyes for a second<br />

And meet a fragile soul<br />

I scream to hide that I'm lonely<br />

The echo calls my name<br />

<br />

If I ever, if I never<br />

Make me wanna stand up for whatever<br />

Make me say, make me pay<br />

Make me understand you're there for me<br />

<br />

Take this life I'm right here<br />

Stay a while and breathe me in<br />

Take this life I'm right here<br />

Stay a while and breathe me in<br />

<br />

The water drops just beg to hit me<br />

Why now haven't rained for days<br />

No time to play hide and seek<br />

I call upon you to take me on<br />

<br />

Break me down to pieces<br />

Put me back do it right this time<br />

Struggling to fill this empty stream<br />

Burn my efforts in the end it means nothing<br />

<br />

If I ever, if I never<br />

Make me wanna stand up for whatever<br />

Make me say, make me pay<br />

Make me understand you're there for me<br />

<br />

Take this life I'm right here<br />

Stay a while and breathe me in<br />

Take this life I'm right here<br />

Stay a while and breathe me in<br />

<br />

These thoughts burn a hole in my heart<br />

These thoughts will keep me feeling<br />

These thoughts burn a hole in my heart<br />

These thoughts will keep me feeling<br />

<br />

If I ever, if I never<br />

Make me wanna stand up for whatever<br />

Make me say, make me pay<br />

Make me understand you're there for me<br />

<br />

Take this life I'm right here<br />

Stay a while and breathe me in<br />

Take this life I'm right here<br />

Stay a while and breathe me in
