Take from Safe by Marian Crole

Take, whatever it is you want
from my head to my bones
from my skin to my soul

and if you need tears to clear up all your sins
come take my eyes
and if you need jokes to entertain your time
come take my scars, I guess they'll make you laugh

and if you're voiceless and need my screams to hear
the pain you can't release
come I give you my peace

Piece by piece as you take from me
everything I am
here's what I ask
Piece by piece as you take from me
everything I have
please do remember
that what you take from others
is what you don't give to yourself

if you need honesty
to stand up on your feet
I see why you take my dignity as your preferred seat
and if you need hands to hold on to your chance
would you dare holding mine
accept we're the same

Take whatever it is you want
from my head to my bones
from my skin to my soul

Piece by piece as you take from me
everything I am
here's what I ask
Piece by piece as you take from me
everything I have
please do remember
that what you take from others
is what you don't give to yourself

What is it you're looking for
when you steal from other's love

Take, whatever it is you want
from my head to my bones
from my skin to my soul
and if you need tears to clear up all your sins
then come and take my eyes
in them you're only light
