TAKE THIS (2007)

Lyrics

[Intro] I'm all alone still, my heart is roadkill Some helpless creature now bleeds, unceremoniously Turned to paste by each uncaring wheel Oh, the wheels Wake from a nightmare, but nothing stays there I'd split my head open wide for some light to get inside I could stay up all night, for all I care I don't care [Chorus] I'm still unsafe, and I've never been less sound I'm still unsafe, and I've never been less sound And I love it so much, and I have no love I love it so much, and I have no love I'm still unsafe, and I'vе never been less sound (Takе this.) [Chorus] I'm still unsafe, and I've never been less sound I'm still unsafe, and I've never been less sound (Take this, take all I don't need) And I love it so much, and I have no love I love it so much, and I have no love I'm still unsafe, and I've never been less sound [Verse] I could - wait For the re-occurring nightmare to repeat itself (NO!) Or take my demons by the horns and throw them straight to hell Along with every lie I told myself, oh-oh I have faith There's a light out there that's bright enough to save me now Even after all I've done to keep the daylight out One brilliant ray broke through somehow, oh-oh... YEAH! [Bridge 1] Can the morning and I try to make amends? 'Cause I broke my brain on counting regrets To try to bore myself to death, oh [Bridge 2] Commemorating mistakes! How many years will it take? Away from me all you voices, How long? For every mess that I've been, for newer things I could be For every word I reserve for my elegy Make me believe in "Not me"! Roll away every stone of my brain's grave! Commemorating mistakes! Autoantagonist faith! Oh, the incisions I made on a Monday! I'm still unsafe and awake, ungodly hours and states I'm in a race with myself to repeat myself I'm still in love with a grave, in love with being afraid I'm in a race with myself to repeat - NO! We need forgiveness to go deeper than the skin! We have Signs of grace engraved in a once-blank space, We have wounds that prove We lived! And now my house is a mess, the summer comes to an end, I'm going out with my hands up, come on! Your love is haunting my head, Restoring, raising the dead I'm carried up to the end of the marathon! Take this, take all I don't need! And you're the only love that won't leave! Be patient with me, I'm weak and I can't breathe… (TAKE THIS, TAKE THIS, I can't breathe!) Commemorating mistakes! Commemorating mistakes! Regret is faith in a falsehood, wake up! Nobody's looking for me, because I'm already found I felt the holes in your hands on the Way Out Praise God from whom all blessings flow! Praise him all creatures here below! The one who takes my swords away, The one who reigns on my... ...Parade [Outro] Farewell, O memory, though you weren't kind to me For every day I survive, there's a part of you that dies Kiss my cages goodnight, my heart is free
