Take me from this place,
To the place where you go.
Take me to a place
Where lips stained with roses
Excite my body,
Ignite my soul,
Where the Sun always rises and seizes control
Of the pain that I feel as the cold takes its toll.
Simply breathing but I’ll never know
The taste of those lips,
And the sway of her hips,
As we dance so slow,
The record will show,
You had the power to free me from prison
This self-induced apathy,
Booze and smoke ridden
Constant philosophy,
Things-always-lost-on-me,
Self always mocking me,
Powered by coffee, see
You did not know how much this could affect me
And I don’t know quite what I was expecting
So you can go away
Cause I don’t know what to say
I don’t know
The world goes by
As I hardly take notice
Unfurls awry
She’s gone and I know this
But I can’t help feeling
that I am still reeling but
Don’t cry. Don’t cry.
The world goes by
As I light up and smoke this.
Bone dry,
This self-obsessed purpose
And I cannot take this
Exposed and I’m naked just
Get by. Get by.
You had the power to free me from prison
This self-induced apathy,
Booze and smoke ridden
Constant philosophy,
Things-always-lost-on-me,
Self always mocking me,
Powered by coffee, see
You did not know how much this could affect me
And I don’t know quite what I was expecting
So you can go away
Cause I don’t know what to say
I don’t know
Don’t be afraid
‘Cause I won’t let this story
End in a place
Where you’re feeling sorry,
‘Cause I wish you the best
And though I’ll never rest
My sore head on your chest
And I won’t lay a finger
On your skin and linger
As you drift off to sleep
So fine and so meek
I’ll simply be
Okay.
