Take Me With You
Astrakhan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dont stop now, keep crawling
Nowhere to hide, nowhere will it end
Dont stop now, keep crawling
Had so many chances to turn back and start again
Dont stop now, keep crawling
But like so many times before I got hit again
Dont stop now, keep crawling
Have you ever had enough of this old world, your life and time you can confess
-I have, I have, I have
Are you left behind, nowhere to go and all alone with all this stress
I am, I am, I am
Take me with you
Take me with you
Out of nothing comes nothing
I used to walk with no fear of letting go
These dead end streets will take me six feet bellow
Have you ever had enough of this old world, your life and time you can confess
-I have, I have, I have
Are you left behind, nowhere to go and all alone with all this stress
I am, I am, I am
Take me with you
Take me with you
Out of nothing comes nothing
Do you wanna know whats its like to rise and brush the dust off and just keep on walking?
Should I tell you what to do when love turns into a predator for years before it finally find out that love is your friend and you, yourself is the enemy?
I cant, because I don't know nothing about it. Cause my aim was never to be happy...
I felt safe being miserable, I wanted to stay at the bottom, because that protected me from drowning. Invulnerable... untouchable...and wanted. But life wanted something else... and who am I to say no,
Have you ever had enough of this old world, your life and time you can confess
-I have, I have, I have
Are you left behind, nowhere to go and all alone with all this stress
I am, I am, I am
Take me with you(come fly on wings of...)
Take me with you(fly on wings of)
