Take It All Away, Take It All the Way
Take it all away —
These thoughts of suicide today
Tonight, I’m having them big time, it’s a terrible crime
It’s not at all sublime…maybe, I can wait some time…
Remember me
When I was young and foolish
Remember me
When I was in the waters of anguish
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
I pray you save me from desparity
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
I am in dismay in the sea of calamity
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
Happiness is just a teardrop away from reaching out to hold you, to embrace you
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
Sadness will no longer be your tune of loneliness and you’ll no longer be blue
Get out of here, hatred
Don’t give me any trace of dread
Daily defeated by depression and anxiety, it won’t set me free
It won’t set me free from despondency…I will conquer it all away, you’ll see…
Remember me
When I was young and foolish
Remember me
When I was in the waters of anguish
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
I pray you save me from desparity
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
I am in dismay in the sea of calamity
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
Happiness is just a teardrop away from reaching out to hold you, to embrace you
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
Sadness will no longer be your tune of loneliness and you’ll no longer be blue
Take it all away,
Distress and darkness, coming my way
Take it all the way
I pray you’ll take me away from disarray
Say you’ll stay with me
Say you’ll be my liberty
Say you’ll pray for me
To be set free from my misery…
When I was in the waters of anguish
Take it all away,
Take it all the way
Remember me
When I was young and foolish
Take it all the way,
Take it all away
Remember me
When I was swimming in the sea, single and lonely like a minuscule fish
Reduced to dismay,
Wishing you were here today
Take it all the way…take it all away..
The anguish and turmoil of yesterday
