As I Lay Dying - Take What's Left
I took what you gave me
Destroyed it all
I had to lose everything to know that I was wrong
And now I see
What was true all along
A void in me, now that everything is gone
Now that everything is gone
The emptiness can be a source of clarity
Taking away a way for us to hide, always revealing
No choice but to rebuild, no voice, no peace, no love, no home
Nothing left to hold, nothing left but hope
Take my broken frame
What still remains free from the chains
Free from the chains
Nothing left to hold, nothing left but hope
Like hunting for prey that we don't even need to track
So easy to follow what's next, we are left with only one path, one path
No choice but to rebuild, no voice, no peace, no love, no home
Nothing left but hope
Take my broken frame
What still remains free from the chains
Free from the chains
Take what's left in me, what's worth saving
No matter how much time it takes
From merely hope, we are brought back to life
From broken bones
We revive
Take what's left and create
Take what's left and then rebuild
(You had every reason)
(To give up on me)
(But you stood and waited)
(When everyone ran away)
I took your gifts
Destroyed them all
And then lost everything to know that I was wrong
But you still carried me when you could barely walk
You reminded me I was never too far gone
Take my broken frame
What still remains free from the chains
Free from the chains
Take what's left in me, what's worth saving
No matter how much time it takes
Take my broken frame
What still remains free from the chains
Free from the chains
Take what's left
Take what's left and rebuild
