Everybody Knows

Everybody knows death don't mean to take, Like a rattlesnake we come to find. Take me by the hand it ain't psysical, Running from it's demands, we try And everybody knows that is just the way it takes us Lifts us up & makes us leave the ones we love So, take me for a ride, like a wildfire, Cross an ever-wilder path of light And I'll try my best now not to fight, Willingly beside, you're what I want tonight... Take me, love-drunk, like a party-hopping Teenage whore No, I ain't afraid now, I'm sunk & you leave Me coming back for more And everybody's trying to make some conversation Maybe find a reason, some way to hold on So take me for a ride like a wildfire, Cross an ever-wilder path of light And I'll try my best now not to fight, Willingly beside; you're what I want tonight... Wind cries underneath the dark sighs Mixing with the moonlight, all intoxicate me Lift me up & make me see the other side of what's right I know I can love you tonight... I believe in taking, pushing to the limits Like a candle burning too bright And you know it's made me what I am Maybe you don't understand, this is my life And now you're saying:"Why kid, all these conversations, Making me so tired", I want to know you know me So take me for a ride like a wildfire Cross an ever-wilder path of light And I'll try my best now not to fight Willingly beside, you're what I want tonight Please don't leave me waiting I've waited for too long now Take me where I wanna go Take me to the sky...
