Strange view from the backseat & nowhere to go
Staring back was a bad dream outside my window

I drove you mad like an actor along for the ride
Something bad must have happened, and I just can't sympathize

You were away for too long
Now I'm singing my song
Keeping my head in the game
Oh, it's such a shame

So Take all my lonely
Take it away
Just hold me closely
Till this feeling fades
Take all my lonely
Take it away
Oh

Oh, she told me of nightmares - weakness in our genes
That I was born into bad luck, so my wounds were bound to bleed

When seeing your blood for the very first time
It leaves such a sting in your eyes
Oh, what sacrifice

Take all my lonely
Take it away
Just hold me closely
Till this feeling fades
Take all my lonely
Take it away
Make your exit slowly
Before it's too late

So much for taking my time
Sorry for wasting your time
Such innocent crimes

What good is courage when it's all tucked away?
One day I'll make my escape if just for one day

Take all my lonely
Take it away
Just hold me closely
Till this feeling fades
Take all my lonely
Take it away
Make my exit slowly
Before it's too late...
