Take My Life
Jay Wheeler Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I used to believe
The love that we had was forever
But now I can let it go
And I couldn't leave
I've seen in your face
That I lost all your trust
And I can't let it go, I lost my soul
I even tried to take my life (life)
I can't let it go, I lost my soul
I even tried to take my life

You tried to run some game on me
But I see that love's what's just make-believe
Plenty nights I would stay up to the sunshine
It's not right to my soul, but she's so fine
Yeah
But I still need your love anyway when it comes to you
Yeah
Aunque parezca fake, yeah
I know
Still have my heart
Right here, I know
Still have my heart

I used to believe
The love that we had was forever
But now I can let it go
And I couldn't leave
I've seen in your face
That I lost all your trust
And I can't let it go, I lost my soul
I even tried to take my life (life)
I can't let it go, I lost my soul
I even tried to take my life

I take drugs to waste my time
And I fell in love with another tot
(I cheated twice, I can't lie)
With a girl I fantasized
(Eat my soul like parasite)
But I call her my paradise
I know that you run away from me
But deep down you just wanna stay with me
Can't let it go, call my phone on a drunk day
What made it worse was in the club I was rolling
I know you stayed the same
I know I'm one to blame
You lost your trust in me

I used to believe
The love that we had was forever
But now I can let it go
And I couldn't leave
I've seen in your face
That I lost all your trust
And I can't let it go, I lost my soul
I even tried to take my life (life)
And I can't let it go
I lost my soul (I lost my soul)
I even tried to take my life (yeah)

I know you (I know you)
Still have (still have) my heart
Right here




I know you (I know you, oh)
Still have my heart, ah
