Take What You Want
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Love's complicated
Love it or hate it
I'm in this to win
You don't have to believe it
Take it or leave it
Just let it begin
From two different worlds
We come crashing in
It's like a brand new day
Stand shoulder to shoulder
Soldier to soldier
So show me the way
Take what you want
Take what you need
Take anything
But just leave some for me
So take what you like
If you like what you see
There's a price to be paid
'Cause it sure ain't for free
Life is elective, the unexpected
It's part of the deal
Don't try to move me, this ain't like a movie
This ending is real
From two different worlds
We come crashing in
It's like a perfect storm
Stand shoulder to shoulder
Soldier to soldier
So just bring it on
So take what you want
Take what you need
Take anything
But just leave some for me
So take what you like
If you like what you see
There's a price to be paid
'Cause it sure ain't for free
All alone, return to stone
As the king is overthrown
The truth begins to shed
And it's mine for now and forever
So take what you want
Take what you need
Take anything
But just leave some for me
So take what you like
If you like what you see
There's a price to be paid
'Cause it sure ain't for free
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
