"Better Place" lyrics

Are you gone, is this real
Scared to think, scared to feel
Everything is numb inside
How could you leave me behind

Is it safer where you are
Are you free from all your scars
I hope you've left behind your pain
But I will never be the same

Still, I hope you've found your peace
Even though it's killing me
It just hurts too much to live without your light

Take me down, pull me deep into the water
Let me drown, I beg you, bury me alive
This world is just too cold to take
Ever since you've gone away
Dear God, don't save me, let me slip away
Back to you, to a better place

Every memory, haunting me
Now you're gone I finally see
You could never be replaced
Took for granted every day

Wish that I could turn back time
Take these wrongs and make them right
Now there's nothing left to say
Had my chance now it's too late

If there is another life
And you've found your paradise
Take me with you, I can't do this on my own

Take me down, pull me deep into the water
Let me drown, I beg you, bury me alive
This world is just too cold to take
Ever since you've gone away
Dear god, don't save me, let me slip away
Back to you, to a better place

You slipped away right through my hands
Now I'm left with this hell here in my head
I'm drowning in your memory but it is all that I have left

You slipped away right through my hands
Now I'm left with this hell here in my head
I'm drowning in your memory but it is all that I have left

So take me down and let me drown tonight
So take me down and let me drown tonight
