Verse 1
I am the only one to blame for this
Somehow it all ends 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
Verse 2
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
Chorus
(To love you)
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
I am on my knees
(To love you)
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
Broken on my knees
Verse 3
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, what I need
And what I believe are worlds apart
And I pray
Chorus
(To love you)
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
I am on my knees
(To love you)
Take my world a - part
(To need you)
Broken on my knees
On my knees
Outro
I look beyond the empty cross
Forgetting what my life has cost
I wipe away the crimson stains
And dull the nails that still remain
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 apart
Take it now, take it now
And serve the ones that I despise (To love you)
Speak the words I can't deny Take my world a - part
(To need you)
And watch the world I used to love
Fall to dust and blow away I am on my knees
(To love you)
I look beyond the empty cross
Forgetting what my life has cost Take my world a - part
(To need you)
So wipe away the crimson stains
And dull the nails that still remain Broken on my knees
(To need you)
And steal my heart and take the pain
And take the selfish, take the weak
And all the things I cannot hide (To need you)
Take the beauty, take my tears
Take my world apart On my knees
(To need you)
Take my world apart
And I do pray (To need you)
And I pray, and I pray
Take my world apart On my knees
worlds apart
