"All I Ask" lyrics

I gotta feeling that I'm losing you
I've been trying different ways to get through to you
But all the days feel repetitive
You abuse every pill and sedative

It's been awhile since you made some sense
All the pain you caused at your own expense
It's hard to watch a shell of you
And if your friends ever ask I won't tell the truth

But all I ask is if you'd take it easy on me
And just forget the past
And dream of something worth fighting for
Don't you waste your time
The high won't last forever

I gotta feeling they gotta grip on you
Holding you tight they won't loosen soon
The claws sink deeper with each inhale
And every bottle you drink is an endless trail

Back to the place where you left your mind
This time around I hope you swallow your pride

'Cause all I ask is if you'd take it easy on me
And just forget the past
And dream of something worth fighting for
Don't you waste your time
The high won't last forever

Remember when you used to tell me all the places you wanted to go
Remember when you used to show me everything you we're working on
Remember when you you used to hold my hand and reassure that you'll be alright

'Cause all I ask is if you'd take it easy on me
And just forget the past
And dream of something worth fighting for
Don't you waste your time
The high won't last forever
