Take Me Away

Take me away

From the demons in my brain

Take me out into the world

Take me out into the day and let me find

My piece of mind

I was alone

I was taken with the tide

But I knew that I was home

When I looked into your eyes

And said I’m done

Just let me go

I am hollow

I am numb

I am staring down the barrel of this gun

I am always by myself

In a sea of self infliction

That I felt

My life is a line

Burning faster every time

Happy’s just a dead end street

I must turn around and leave

Once in a while

Once in a while

I bear far more cracks

Than the human eye can see

Is it fair to be perplexed

And try explain what’s underneath

With my success

Cause there’s nothing’s left

I am tortured

By myself

I am haunted by

The fear of someone else

I am fading

I’m a ghost

Disconnected from the things

I love the most

You’ve seen my best

Turn to the worst

I’ve dragged you

Right down with me

Want to confess

But with the stress

I’m scared you’d leave me

I want you to know

But you can’t take it on your own

I am hollow

I am numb

I am staring down the barrel of this gun

I am always by myself

In a sea of self infliction

That I felt
