Take Me Home
The Verona Lyrics

There's a lion above your bed
You feel trapped and afraid, like there's a predator looming over you

And he's eating at your soul now
You feel like something is slowly devouring your internal self

I'm a jewel in a paper bag and it keeps you down
You feel worthless and unimportant, like a valuable thing trapped in something cheap

Consolation for what you've lost
You seek comfort in the things you've lost and try to hold onto them

A constellation that can't be crossed
You feel stuck and unable to move past your current situation, like you're trapped in the stars

There's a shadow on your back
You have a burden or a problem that follows you around and won't let go

And it's eating out your heart now
This burden or problem is slowly destroying you from the inside

Get out of my head
You want to escape your own thoughts and the things that haunt you

Leave me alone
You want to be by yourself and away from the things that are bothering you

I heard what you said
You are aware of what people are telling you, but you don't agree with them

You just don't know
You feel like other people don't understand what you're going through

Oh just take me
You're asking for someone to rescue you and take you away from your problems

Wake me
You want to be awoken from the nightmare you're living in

Break me
You're so broken and hopeless that you don't even want to be fixed

I am not what you wanted
You feel like you're not measuring up to other people's expectations

I am now what you fear
People are afraid of you or what you've become

You've taken it for granted
People have not appreciated or valued you or your contributions

You twist the atmosphere
Your presence or actions are causing discord and negativity around you

I've already had it to here
You've reached your limit and can't take anymore of the pain and suffering
