Take Me
5:43 AM
Gasping for air
a wisp of breath
Amongst the ashes
I wait beneath
The remains, the cries
The patches, burnt and dried
Of the fairy tales
I knew
The ghosts of the rainbows
in the dew...
The dreams long ago
The magic up and below
The hopes, the warmth
The tears, the life
The shattering, the pain
And realising the truth
of the lies...
I stand and wait
I wait here for you
Pick me in your arms
I know you've been waiting for me too...
Gasping for air
a wisp of breath
I'm here, just take me
Come take me, death...
a wisp of breath
Amongst the ashes
I wait beneath
The remains, the cries
The patches, burnt and dried
Of the fairy tales
I knew
The ghosts of the rainbows
in the dew...
The dreams long ago
The magic up and below
The hopes, the warmth
The tears, the life
The shattering, the pain
And realising the truth
of the lies...
I stand and wait
I wait here for you
Pick me in your arms
I know you've been waiting for me too...
Gasping for air
a wisp of breath
I'm here, just take me
Come take me, death...
