Take It
Take these feelings that stab and prick,
Wrapped up inside of me,
These emotions I bear, make me sick,
And worse, they make me think of you...

Take these tears that I've cried,
I've shed them just for you,
When it felt like my soul had died,
And you laughed, while grinning at my dispair.

Take my memories away,
But keep them close to you,
For I have paid the price for my mistakes this way,
And now it's time you do the same.

Take back all the blood you share with me,
I never wanted it at all,
I just wanted you to leave me be,
So that I can still remain who I am...

Take this pain that you've given me,
This pain that I can't live with,
And I will finally be set free,
But you will have to live with it in my place...
