Take It All

Lyrics
As I stare into the edge of our disaster
I falter at the finish line
I'm stuck inside the prism of the past
It comes and goes
It comes and goes
Tired of chasing fairy tale forever afters
Cos I heard they were just a lie
All the words I have are caught behind my teeth
And they're choking me
It's getting hard to breathe
This silent air it knows too much
our whispers don't
These photo frames of us
They're only holding dust
High time to cut the rope
Our queen's been overthrown
Don't say the shoe don't fit
Just cos you can't admit
You'd take it all
You'd take it all
If you could
My weight in gold
My blood and bones
Why do you like to
Burn my lungs and then you
Stomp me out like a cigarette
Leave an aftertaste like you never left
So cold
So cold
You'd take it all
You'd take it all
Getting lost in sweeping truth under the table
Falling deeper in with every alibi
Shadows filling up the emptiness I own
It comes and goes
It comes and goes
This silent air it knows too much
our whispers don't
These photo frames of us
They're only holding dust
High time to cut the rope
Our queen's been overthrown
Don't say the shoe don't fit
Just cos you can't admit
You'd take it all
You'd take it all
If you could
My weight in gold
My blood and bones
Why do you like to
Burn my lungs and then you
Stomp me out like a cigarette
Leave an aftertaste like you never left
So cold
So cold
You'd take it all
You'd take it all
Why?
You'd take it all
Why?
You'd take it all
You'd take it all
You'd take it all
If you could
My weight in gold
My blood and bones
Why do you like to
Burn my lungs and then you
Stomp me out like a cigarette
Leave an aftertaste like you never left
So cold
So cold
You'd take it all
You'd take it all
