I'm the only one to blame for this   Somehow it all adds up the same   Soaring on the wings of selfish pride   I flew too high and like Icarus I collide   With a world I try so hard   To leave behind   To rid myself of all but love   To give and die   To turn away and not become   Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves   More deeply than the oceans, more abundant than the tears   Of a world embracing every heartache   Can I be the one to sacrifice   Or grip the spear and watch   The blood and water flow   To love you, take my world apart   To need you, I am on my knees   To love you, take my world apart   To need you, broken on my knees   All said and done I stand alone   Amongst remains of a life I should not own   It takes all I am to believe   In the mercy that covers me   Did you really have to die for me?   All I am for all you are   Because what I need   And what I believe are worlds apart, and I pray   To love you, take my world apart   To need you, I am on my knees   To love you, take my world apart   To need you, broken on my knees, on my knees   I look beyond the empty cross   Forgetting what my life has cost   And wipe away the crimson stains   And dull the nails that still remains   More and more I need you now   I owe you more each passing hour   The battle between grace and pride   I gave up not so long ago   So steal my heart and take the pain   And wash the feet and cleanse my pride   Take the selfish, take the weak   And all the things I cannot hide   Take the beauty, take my tears   The sin-soaked heart and make it yours   Take my world all apart   Take it now, take it now   And serve the ones that I despise   Speak the words I can't deny   Watch the world I used to love   Fall to dust and thrown away   I look beyond the empty cross   Forgetting what my life has cost   So wipe away the crimson stains   And dull the nails that still remain   Steal my heart and take the pain   Take the selfish, take the weak   And all the things I cannot hide   Take the beauty, take my tears   Take my world apart, take my world apart   And I pray, and I pray, and I pray   Take my world apart, world apart
