this life

You couldn't even bring yourself to stay, oh no

You had to go, spoil it all

I know you had to go

Now I find these endlessly

Colorblind days to fill

You never will

(Take this life)

Take this life

Take it all in your hands

You were mine

I could smile

You understand, fine

Again I dream

You come to me

(Come back to me)

And comfort me

But now I dream

Where did this time go?

Where did this time go?

Did your love go?

I know you have to go, spoil it all

And now I know

You never will

(Take this life)

Take this life

Take it all in your hands

You were mine

I could smile

You understand, fine

(Take this life)

Take this life

Take it all in your hands

You were mine

I could smile

Again

Just what you said was cold advice

I discovered sticks go with knives

I discovered I could've die in your chains

Still I feel, so won't you stay, oh, babe?

(Take this life)

Take this life

Take it all in your hands

You were mine

I could smile

You understand, fine

(Take this life)

Take this life

Take it all in your hands

You were mine

I could smile

Again
