Take Me Home
Just Surrender Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a touch and the taste that threw me off
Just another of those lines you're bound to cross.
It's safe to say, "this night you're already
Heading in the wrong direction."

Well who's to blame for you being away?
You know that's not fair for you to say
I needed something to hide the pain...

So what's your reason for leaving now?
You never cared much for this place anyhow
Oh foolish girl you know that the past will always catch you.

So just take me home, 'cause I need to be alone.
All these thoughts race through my head.
All the awful things she did while I was gone.

It was a look on his face that turned her on,
How could this feel so right and go so wrong?
It's safe to say that you were never ready,
To let me be your one and only.

It's such a shame that you threw it away,
Trust me, I think about it every day.
Just wish there's some way to make you stay...

Just another reason to leave this town.
I never cared much for this place anyhow.
Oh jealous boy you know that you're pride will never let you.

So just take me home, 'cause I need to be alone.
All these songs play in my head,
All the awful things she said.
You can just take me home, 'cause I'm feeling more alone
All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone.

So grab your keys, we're leaving now...
Take me away, our times run out...

I've been stuck in these shoes before,
So I know the worst is still in store.
Won't be afraid to just want more,
Than what lies, in front of me.
I build this up to break you down,
And smear your name across this town.

Now as you dive into the sea,
of lies, deceit, pride and greed.
My only hope is that you drown.
One last way to make me proud..
I'll do just fine here on my own,
You'll never have to live alone.

Take me home, I'm feelin' so alone.
All these thoughts race through my head
Of all that could have been
So just take me home, 'cause I need to be alone
All these songs play in my head
All the awful things she said
So just take me home, 'cause I'm feeling more alone
All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone
All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone
Take me home




All these thoughts race through my head
All the awful things she did while I was gone
