Song Lyrics

It's not so much the pain
It's more the actual knife
Pretending the picture is perfect
I cut myself to sleep
I close my eyes for a second
And meet a fragile soul
I scream to to hide that I'm lonely
The echo calls my name

If I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make my see, make me pay
Make me understand you're there for me

Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in

The water drops just beg to hit me
Why now? Haven't rained for days
No time to play hide and seek
I call upon you to take on
Break down to pieces
Put me back, do it right this time
Struggling to fill this empty shell
Burn my efforts in the end it means nothing

If I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make my see, make me pay
Make me understand you're there for me

Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in

These thoughts
Burned a hole in my heart
These thoughts
What keeps me feeling
These thoughts
Burned a hole in my heart
These thoughts
What keeps me feeling

If I ever, if I never
Make me understand the thought whatever
Make my see, make me pay
Make me understand you're there for me

Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
Take this life
I'm right here
Stay a while and breathe me in
