Take My Place

As I lay down on the bed
Tryna come to terms with what has just been said
I don’t know where I should look or what to say
Is this happening to us today?
If I could then I would scream
I'd wipe the tears off of my face
Wake me up if it’s a dream
This is more than I can take
I'd give everything I own
If someone else could take my place
Can someone else please take my place?
How could life be so unfair?
I can't breathe, in fact I'm choking on the air
It's all over, I can see it in your eyes
Pull my hand down, heavily I sigh
If I could then I would scream
I'd wipe the tears off of my face
Wake me up if it’s a dream
This is more than I can take
I'd give everything I own
If someone else could take my place
Can someone else please take my place?
If I could then I would scream
I'd wipe the tears off of my face
Wake me up if it’s a dream
This is more than I can take
I'd give everything I own
If someone else could take my place
Can someone else, please, take my place?
