​take it away

[Verse 1]
You get too drunk so you can say what you mean
Tell me everything you know will only hurt me
In your arms I've taught myself not to feel it all the way
And on your lips I tell myself that it's never gonna stay

[Chorus]
Oh, when you take it away
You know it's almost worse than never having it at all
And ooh, when you hold on to me
You know it only makes me ache more once you let go

[Beat Break]

[Verse 2]
I'll be here waiting so patiently
But it's just not fair when you whisper sweet things
Hear a song and think of me
Think of everybody else
And I'll try to fit your fantasy
Be a better version of myself

[Chorus]
Oh, when you take it away
You know it's almost worse than never having it at all
And, ooh, when you hold on to me
You know it only makes me ache more once you let go

[Beat Break]
