"Take Me Out" lyrics

"Take Me Out"

So if you're lonely, you know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here, you leave me broken shattered I lie
I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot then we can die

I say, don't you know?
You say, you don't know
I say, take me out!

I say, you don't show
Don't move, time is slow
I say, take me out!

Take me out!

So if you're lonely, you know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here, you leave me broken shattered I lie
I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot then we can die

I say, don't you know?
You say, you don't know
I say, take me out!

I say, you don't show
Don't move, time is slow
I say, take me out!

Take me out!

I know I won't be leaving here with you
I know I won't be leaving here with you
Take me out!
