Take Me, Grim Reaper

Oh, Grim Reaper won't you take me?

The world of the broken is where I want to be

Death is what I so heavily desire

Won't you help me burn my fire?


I want you to take my soul

My life, I am no longer in control

Such a dark and beautiful mystery

Please just take me out of my misery


With you I feel a connection

I see you in my own reflection

I just want to meet you someday

Then maybe you could take me away


It wouldn't be suicide

If you could just let me inside

Take me to a place so dark and beautiful

I feel as if your home is suitable


Slice me with your scythe

People say you're just a myth

But I believe you to be true

I believe that you could pull me through


Leave your stone with me

Then maybe I'll be set free

Because you are what I want to be

You are everything in my mind I see


Take a look into my soul

Can't you see I was never in control?

I am not mistaken

I just want to be taken


Oh, Grim Reaper won't you take me?

The world of the broken is where I want to be

You are what I so heavily desire

You are helping me burn my fire
