Take My Time
The Crash Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Forever and a day I will wait
Forever may not last very long
'Cause never prevails forever
Hello, hello, hello, where are we now

So take my time, I'll wait forever
Oh, take my life, I'll wait forever
Just don't break my heart, I'll wait for you, my love, we're destiny

However, you will give me more time
Whenever time's running out
You cover me with wonderful hopes
Hello, hello, hello, where are we now?

So take my time, I'll wait forever
Oh, take my life, I'll wait forever
Just don't break my heart, I'll wait for you, my love, we're destiny

To get her I will throw me away
Together, forever and a day
This waiting is killing me now
But true love will never die

So take my time, I'll wait forever




Oh, take my life, I'll wait forever
Just don't break my heart, I'll wait for you, my love, we're destiny

Realized I can never win
Sometimes I feel like I have failed
Inside where do I begin
My mind is laughing at me
Tell me why am I to blame
Aren't we suppose to be the same
That's why I will never tame
This thing that's burning in me

I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Sometimes I can never tell
If I've got something after me 
That's why I just beg and plead
For this curse to leave me
Tell me why am I to blame
Aren't we suppose to be the same
That's why I will never tame
This thing that's burning in me

I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Betrayed
I feel so enslaved
I really Tried
I did my time [x5]


I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

Oh God, the anger's changing me [x2]

Realize that I can never win
Sometimes I feel like I have failed
Inside where do I begin
My mind is laughing at me
Tell me why am I to blame on me
Are we supposed to be the same, that's why
I will never change this thing that's burning in me
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Sometimes I can never tell
If I got something that remains
That's why I just hang in grief
Or this I just let me be
Tell me why am I to blame on me
Are we supposed to be the same, that's why
I will never change this thing that's burning in me
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Betrayed
I feel so insane
I really tried
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Oh god the anger changing me
Oh god the anger changing me
