Take your place


Here she comes

All she sees she keeps

No one gonna take it away

Her eyes are young and old

The kind that ancients sold

To celebrate a victory

The trail she leaves

Is dark, doubt and dread

And all the mouths she's ever fed

Round, round like the world she turns

It's a playback stuck inside your head

Yeah, I see you for the first time

And baby I just want to leave

Yeah, I know you it's the last time

I'm all messed up

I got nothing to take your place

There's past she keeps

In a depression jar

She opens like a secret cave

Who she was before

And what her life's become

Is built upon the love she craves

I'm going down down down

There's nothing here

And baby you can't

Hold me up

I'm going down down down

Even deeper still

'Cause this world has gotten so fucked up

Yeah, I see you for the first time

And baby I just wanna leave

Yeah, I know you it's the last time

I'm all messed up

I got nothing to take your place

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
