Take It Away

Take my sanity, make me alive
For this joy i no longer strive
take it now and set me free
so you'll see the truth in me
take it now, take it away
for i can't live with it another day

take my sanity render me insane
take it so i can't feel the pain
for it has gotten me nowhere
alone here and empty there
let the madness begin
i have not an ounce of sanity left within

take it so i will no longer suffer
this curse only makes life tougher
while it dwells inside i cannot live
for i have nothing left to give
so take my sanity
for with it i cannot be me
it is a figment of my imagination
for i am addicted to devastation
and i don't imagine anymore
my heart, its pounding on the floor
i'm addicted to the misery inside my head
my memories are shriveled and dead
i fear i've reached the point of no return
and for my sins my soul shall burn
i'm done with it all
all i've built up is a broken wall

so take my sanity render me insane
take it so i cant feel the pain
for it has gotten me nowhere
alone here and empty there
let the madness begin
for i have not an ounce of sanity left within

all i've made up has crashed and burned
for serenity i no longer yearn
i retain nothing but regrets
and this tonight is my biggest yet
goodbye for now? or goodbye forever
to sanity i will never surrender
it's over now, i've reached the end
my mind is cracking at every bend

please, take my sanity render me insane
take it so i can't feel the pain
sanity has gotten me nowhere
alone here and empty there
let the madness begin
for i have not an ounce of sanity left within
