God please don't take it away from me
This love brand new with understanding
Born of freedom so young and happy
Nothing could ever stop all the laughing


But I'm living a lie


We struggled once but now we're stronger
What we are is all we'll ever be
The futile problem long since conquered
God please don't take it away from me


But the lie still lives


Holding so tight, yet I'm losing my grip
Riding this ship into the depths of the sea
Disconnected I'm standing back just watching it
God please don't take it away from me


God please take everything
I never wanted it anyway
I never felt anything
But I'll never forget that one day
God please give it back
I want it, I need it, I love it, I breathe it
But now my lungs are failing
A life without I can't conceive it


Just let me ask for one more thing
God please don't take this away from me


Everything's changing and
What has just happened here
Everything's changing and it's gone so far away
