Take Me Out (K. Lafty)

i couldn't play the part
not on this stage
i'll play the wounded heart
in "the sadness still remains"
and you told me i could be what i want to be
but i'm chasing it away

somewhere
take me out
i'm ripping from the seam
the spotlight beams
and it's burning me
it takes me out
and i'll never want to leave

i could play the part
in "the last misery"
like a wake up call
or a bad dream
the target's locked now i descend
and you're looking up at me
but i'm chasing it away

somewhere
take me out
i'm ripping from the seam
the spotlight beams
and it's burning me
it takes me out
and i'll never want to leave

step away
so i can see you
your muscles and pain
blew me away
your body owns my smile

somewhere
take me out
i'm ripping from the seam
the spotlight beams
and it's burning me
it takes me out
and i'll never want to leave

take me out
take me out
when your love is gone
it's not easy to fuel the flame
take me out
