Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby I’m part of your life
Take me
No I just wanted your lies
Take me
Baby I’m part of your life
Take me
Lately It’s all sacrifice
Me
You were the one in my eyes
Take me
Take me
And I’ll lose my mind
Not on this side
Don’t want you to cry
I just want you on the side
You by my side
Take what you like
No I’m not falling In line
Follow the light
Take what you like
You want me to roll up and die
Just take what you...
Take me
Lately It’s all sacrifice
I’ll sacrifice
Me
You were the one in my eyes
Take me
Baby I’m part of your life
Take me
No I just wanted your lies
Take me
Baby I’m part of your life
Part of your life
But why would I lie
I’m sorry
But why would I cry
You want me to die
Don’t want your goodbyes
Lately been lost in my mind
It’s so hard to find
So hard to find
You were the one in my eyes
I’ll sacrifice
Me
You were the one in my eyes
Take me
Baby I’m part of your life
Take me
No I just wanted your lies
Wanted your...

Take me back to the place where I was born
Return me to the location of my birth
Right near those mountain hills
In the vicinity of those elevated landforms
Where the green grass grows and the river runs clear
An area where verdant flora flourishes and bodies of water flow transparently
Hear the song of a Whipperwill
Perceive the auditory manifestation produced by a Whip-poor-will
Let a Tear drop fall
Allow a droplet of liquid formed by the eyes to descend
Everytime I miss this place
On every occasion that I long for this specific location
Take me home, back where the buffalo roam
Bring me to my residence where herds of buffalo wander
And my skies are not cloudy all day
And the atmosphere above is not overcast throughout the entirety of the day
