Lyrics
Take It From Me
He?s like a needle to an addict, like trouble to a fool
Pulling you closer and closer ?til you?re losing all your cool
Hide your heart, lock the door
You?re not safe anymore
Take it from me
He?ll kiss like an angel, put you in a spin
Take it from me
He?ll lie on your pillow, slip under your skin
Take it from me
He?ll take your vision and leave you the blame
Take it from me
So if you?re willing to go through the pain
Take it from me
He?s a tall drink of water from a poison wishing well
Feels so good going down, in the end it burns like hell
Hide your heart, lock the door
You?re not safe, you?re the one he?s coming for
Repeat Chorus
When your heart starts to bleed your love turns to need
As you lie beneath the tangled sheets
Know the hunger you feel is a wound that won?t heal
It?s a curse you repeat on a dark and lonely street
Repeat Chorus
