Take Me

I want to be close with you
The one I can't have

The blades you practically placed in my hands
The lack of air you'd supply

I want you to take me to your world
The place only described as trouble
I'd be described as trouble
Better yet troubled

I won't need to pack my bags
I won't need a change of clothes or a toothbrush

You're all I need

I smile to you above 
As I let my hands wrap over my neck
As I let my own hands cut at my wrists and my throat
To taste the bitterness of the love these people won't give me

I want to join the rest
The people who wouldn't know who I was
Who wouldn't know who I am

Take me away to the levels of hell if you must
I will follow always a smile bared upon my face
