Take Away

A Poem by Sarahthirk

Take Away

Verse:
You will fall
At the slightest touch
Like a house of cards
At the point of a gun

You will cry
At the thought of her voice
Sullen and soft
But still too much noise

Pre-Chorus:
Let me tell you now
It's okay to tumble down

Chorus:
But don't you ever feel like
You're not enough
To live your own life
And to live in love
I know how it feels
To see nothing but black
Stuck at the top of a ferris wheel
Under endless attack
Just lean into my arms
I'll take away the harm

Verse:
You will scream
At the sound of emptiness
Plastering the walls
With a broken mess

Take your time
Cuz you're down and out
I'm right here waiting
You can let it all out

Pre-Chorus:
Let me tell you now
I'll catch you when you tumble down

Chorus:
But don't you ever feel like
You're not enough
To live your own life
And to live in love
I know how it feels
To see nothing but black
Stuck at the top of a ferris wheel
Under endless attack
Just lean into my arms
I'll take away the harm, ooh

Bridge:
You're so afraid
Of every little innocent bird flying your way
They've all changed
Into deadly vultures filling your earth with pain
I'll take it all away
I'll take it all away

Chorus:
And don't you ever feel like
You're not enough
To live your own life
And to live in love
I know how it feels
To see nothing but black
Stuck at the top of a ferris wheel
Under endless attack
Just lean into my arms
I'll take away the harm, ooh
Yeah
I'll take away the harm
