Better Place

Are you gone, is this real?
Scared to think, scared to feel
Everything is numb inside
How could you leave me behind?
Is it safer where you are?
Are you free from all your scars?
I hope you've left behind your pain
But I will never be the same
Still, I hope you've found your peace
Even though it's killing me
It just hurts too much to live without your light
Take me down, pull me deep into the water
Let me drown, I beg you, bury me alive
This world is just too cold to take
Ever since you've gone away
Dear god, don't save me, let me slip away
Back to you, to a better place
Every memory, haunting me
Now you're gone I finally see
You could never be replaced
Took for granted every day
Wish that I could turn back time
Take this wrong's and make them right
Now there's nothing left to say
Had my chance, now it's too late
If there is another life, and you've found your paradise
Take me with you, I can't do this on my own
Take me down, pull me deep into the water
Let me drown, I beg you, bury me alive
This world is just too cold to take
Ever since you've gone away
Dear god, don't save me, let me slip away
Back to you, to a better place
You slipped away right through my hands
Now I'm left with this hell here in my head
I'm drowning in your memory but it is all that I have left
You slipped away right through my hands
Now I'm left with this hell here in my head
I'm drowning in your memory but it is all that I have left
So take me down and let me drown tonight
So take me down and let me drown tonight
