Take Anything But You
Cut out my heart
Watch me slowly bleed
Take my eyes
So I can never again see
Take my tongue
So I can never again talk
Take my legs
So I can never again walk
Take my freedom
Lock me in a cell
Take away my soul
So my eternity will be in hell
Take away anything you want from me
I’m strong enough to make it through
There’s only one thing I will die without
It is you.
