Take My Hand
Cab The Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Calm your nerves now
Don't worry
Just breathe
Are you sure now
Don't bother packing
Just leave

Said they wanted change
I hope that
You remain the same
To show that
This is not a game
Lets end this tragedy today

Now take my hand
And we will run away
Down to this place that I know
How did this night become the enemy
It's over, it's over, it's over.

Lay down with me
Let me hold you
Baby just breathe
This is ending and we will get through eventually

Said they wanted change
I hope that
You remain the same
To show that this is not a game
We'll end this tragedy today

Now take my hand
And we will run away
Down to this place that I know
How did this night become the enemy
It's over, it's over, it's over.

Now take my hand
And we will run away
Down to this place that I know
How did this night become the enemy
It's over, it's over, it's over.

We wont be apart of
We wont be apart of this
We wont be apart of
We wont be apart of this
We wont be apart of
We wont be apart of this
We wont be apart of
We wont, we wont.

Now take my hand
And we will run away
Down to this place that I know
How did this night become the enemy
It's over, it's over, it's over.

Now take my hand
And we will run away
Down to this place that I know
How did this night become the enemy
It's over, it's over, it's over.

Now take my hand
And we will run away
Down to this place that I know
How did this night become the enemy
It's over, it's over, it's over.

We wont be apart of
We wont be apart of this




We wont be apart of
We wont, we wont.
