Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This party sucks and I'm sorta killing the mood
I'm just trying to fit in, but that's when the trouble seems to start
Listen here I think I'm done
I'm gonna grab my coat and check out of this one and they'll all laugh in my face
It's not for me, But I've tasted far too much now
Take what you need I've let your teeth sink into my skin for too long
Getting too much for me, it's just too much for me
I'll be here waiting...
They'll tell me things that I wana hear
To keep me sweet but I just can't go back there, they're like leeches to my skin
It's not for me, But I've tasted far too much now
Take what you need I've Let your teeth sink into my skin for too long
Getting too much for me, it's just too much for me
Put me back together and fix me with glue
If you're looking to fill a void or just something to do
I'm sick of these situations I find myself in, I just wana let go and breathe again
It's not for me, But I've tasted far too much now
Take what you need I've Let your teeth sink into my skin for too long
Getting too much for me, it's just too much for me

Take me to the moon
I wanna be with the stars
Send me, send me into orbit
Take me to the moon
I wanna be with the stars
Send me, send me into orbit
Yeah, she said she never been in love
All she ever did was give her love
Everyone, they only take her love
So you scared of love, I don't blame you, love
Let me be the one to show you love
That "need somebody just to hold you" love
That "show you off like a trophy" love
Can I be your one and only love?
I just wanna be (wanna be with the stars)
I think you're the one (send me, send me into orbit)
Girl, you shouldn't be so scared to fall in love (to fall in love)
Yeah, let me love you
Show me how
Lift me up, I'll hold you down
My love is real, I know you need it
I know you crave it, I know you fiending
It's not your shape, not your size
Not your curves, not your thighs
Not your lips, not your eyes
It's your soul and everything inside
That makes me feel, the way I feel
My love for you, was always real
Early mornings, later nights
We never sleep, let me stay the night
My love for you, it never fades
My love for you, it never dies
You take me to another place
Just because you breathing don't mean you alive
Yeah, she said she never been in love
All she ever did was give her love
Everyone, they only take her love
So you scared of love, I don't blame you, love
Let me be the one to show you love
That "need somebody just to hold you" love
That "show you off like a trophy" love
Can I be your one and only love?
I just wanna be (wanna be with the stars)
I think you're the one (send me, send me into orbit)
Girl, you shouldn't be so scared to fall in love (to fall in love)
Yeah, take me far, far away
Find a place, we'll find a way
Don't let me leave, just tell me "Stay"
And tell me everything you wanna say
My love for you, is like a rose
That never dies, but only grows
You pushed away, I held you close
Baby, you an angel, heaven knows
Broken hearts, broken dreams
Broken trust and broken wings
I know you hurt but let me fix it
Show me every scar and let me kiss it
We follow dreams they take us far
To the moon, to the stars
All we want, the world is ours
Through all the pain and all the scars
The world is mine, what's mine is yours
Your love is true, your heart is pure
Always ready but never sure
When I get lonely, baby, you're the cure
My love for you, it never fades
My love for you, it never dies
I never wanna drift away
'Cause I was never good at goodbyes
I think you're the one
Yeah, she said she never been in love
All she ever did was give her love
Everyone, they only take her love
So you scared of love, I don't blame you, love
Let me be the one to show you love
That "need somebody just to hold you" love
That "show you off like a trophy" love
Can I be your one and only love?
I just wanna be (wanna be with the stars)
I think you're the one (send me, send me into orbit)
Girl, you shouldn't be so scared to fall in love (to fall in love)
