take everything but love


Take my heart and, leave me alone.

 

In this world, where nothing matters.

 

Where pain is, forever raging.

 

Where life is, ever breaking.

 

So just take my heart, for I'm nothing with it.

 

Take my life, for I'm a waste on this planet.

 

Take my soul for, I don't deserve heaven.

 

Take my memories for, I don't remember anything.

 

Just leave my love behind, for those who need it.
