“Take It”

(Intro)
I give it to you, I give it to you
I pray that you take, I pray that you take it
I give it to you, I give it to you
I pray that you take, I pray that you take it

(Verse 1)
What makes me unable to escape this fascination
Something I can’t have I’m told can be acquired with patience
But this process if far beyond any experience
I’m so anxious from the fact that I fear a kiss
So I resist my temptation to act
I look back and only see tragedy in the past
Yours maybe truth is it’s mine mostly
Cause I was always told that this was for free
I gave constantly and got little return
Scared for life like a third degree burn
It’s as if we’re ruled by our memories
One bad one is enough to make you tense and freeze
Where words like please don’t exist
But there still thought of as thoroughly missed
So every time I lay down I still pray for you
And wake up the next day writing to get me through

(Hook) X2
I didn’t know what to say so I wrote it down
Hoping that between the line my emotions could be found
So here I stand vulnerable and naked
I’m giving my heart and I pray that you take it

(Verse 2)
I spent so many hours putting in work
But at times it’s useless cause we both still hurt
I’m not there when you need me makes me feel like a jerk
But seeing you once will make me smile all day
With a touch that sooth this savage beast to lay
And I long to hear you say it’s okay
With eyes that can look right into my soul
Stand back and watch as my life unfolds
Now I don’t think I’m ready for the next step
Fast forward to the future to be held in your arms to rest
Like a distant dream only found when I sleep
Grasped so close in recesses so deep
A place where just the two of us can speak
Here alone we can spend time to reach
And I’m giving you the keys to come on in
I’ll wait hoping this won’t come to an end

(Hook) X2
I didn’t know what to say so I wrote it down
Hoping that between the line my emotions could be found
So here I stand vulnerable and naked
I’m giving my heart and I pray that you take it

(Verse 3)
So many times I put my life on the line
Dreading the daily grind waiting for a moment to shine
Is it so bad to say I want a part of you to be mine
But if I didn’t say that then I guess I’d be lying
So I’m standing in the rain watching my world fall apart
And part by part I’m torn through the heart
But when this night started I didn’t want it to end
Even if there’s pain I want your reality rather than pretend
So send me something as a token of affection
I just want your best not a matter of perfection
I’m giving you my all piece by piece
My heart is full so my emotions must release
So here it is all that I got
I’m giving it to you whether you want it or not
There it is take it do what you will
Nothing else I give you could ever be so real

(Hook) X2
I didn’t know what to say so I wrote it down
Hoping that between the line my emotions could be found
So here I stand vulnerable and naked
I’m giving my heart and I pray that you take it
