Take Away the Hate, by bedazzled Subscribe to rss feed for bedazzled

It's hard to define what I feel the most,
These emotions are something I don't choose to host,
And if there was any way to fight this ghost,
Then I'd do what I'd have to do.
But there's no weapon I know of that will fight,
Against this force that's draining light,
I just need to hear the lie 'it'll be alright',
From nobody else but you.

When I can straddle you I can straddle my fears,
Lose my eyes in yours so they forget about tears,
Wrap my arms 'round you so I don't self-suffocate,
Tune my mind to yours so it doesn't know how to hate.

It's hard to keep living in this situation,
Two opposing strengths fighting for domination,
And everywhere I run there's another complication,
I just don't know when it will stop.
I wish I could fast forward through all this mess,
Feel my sparkle return as the weight gets less,
Remember what life is without this distress,
'Cause I refuse to bleed another drop.

When I can kiss you baby I can stop each shout,
Find myself void of what it's even about,
Hold your hand in mine so it lets go of debate,
Magnetise me to you so I have no power to hate.

I don't know how I would cope,
If I didn't have you,
Then I wouldn't have hope.
My baby, you're my all,
If you didn't hold me,
Then I know I would fall.
If it wasn't for you,
My heart would be fractured,
Promise you'll stay,
Just to keep me distracted.

When you hug me together then I don't disentegrate,
Somehow when I'm with you I forget how to hate.
