Take

Listen to Song

Lyrics

Take my strength take my pride
Take my selfishness away
Take my rights, take ambition
Capture me, make me a slave

Break my walls, break my bones
Break my hardened heart
Rip my rule, rip my will
Rip independency apart

Breathe your life, breathe your love
Breathe your breath and I am sustained
Take my hate, take my hurt
Express healing to my pain

Take my flesh in all its arrogance
Stability away
Take my life, bring fire
'Til only you remain

Laid out on my face, yeah
My tongue hanging out to taste, yeah
Of you and your death, yeah
And to know your name, yeah

Accept my gifts, take my crowns
I spread them at your feet
When I bleed, I bleed with joy
As I taste your suffering

Flood life, flood peace
Speak acceptance to my shame
Allow to kneel, allow to praise
Give the right to speak your name

Laid out on my face, yeah
My tongue hanging out to taste, yeah
Of you and your death, yeah
And to know your name, yeah, yeah

Laid out on my face, yeah
My tongue hanging out to taste, yeah
Of you and your death, yeah
And to know your name, yeah

Laid out on my face
Want to know your name
Laid out on my face (laid out on my face)
I want to know your name, yeah
