"Take Me Under" lyrics

Your presence puts out my fire
I watched it happen for way too long
I've let you kill my desires
And you have known that all along

Wish I could somehow make it better
Wish I didn't have to cut all the strings
Tried to act like it doesn't matter
Now I know that I have to change some things

As the leaves are falling
I hear my future calling
As the wind is blowing
I can feel my soul glowing
As the leaves are falling
I hear my future calling
As the wind is blowing
I can feel my soul glowing

The pain is not in separation
I suffer from your deformation
See for yourself, there are no wonders
I cannot let you take me under

There's too much silence in time
There's too much ignorance to know what's best
You think I would know so much by now
Imagining what happens if I'm laid to rest
You think I would know so much by now remembering
The times where I felt so compressed
And I know that it's time to let go, watch me rise

As the leaves are falling
I hear my future calling
As the wind is blowing
I can feel my soul glowing
As the leaves are falling
I hear my future calling
As the wind is blowing
I can feel my soul glowing

The pain is not in separation
I suffer from your deformation
See for yourself, there are no wonders
I cannot let you take me under

Save yourself, I can't be the one to give a hand
Tried before, you made me suffer, now I take my stand
You pulled me lower than I've ever been when I tried to help
Now you're on your own, while I rebuild myself step by step
Everything I tried to do for you
You almost made my future die
Why do I still hate to say goodbye?
