Candle

It's never been a hard decision
Never a moment to break or bend
To share the warmth I'll always give you
From this candle lit at both ends

When you can't see color and life loses taste
When your heart's left to linger on a choice to make
Pour it into me, give it all to me
When you won't let go of the pain you made
Hold it close so you'll never make the same mistake
Pour it into me, give it all to me

'Cause I can take it, I can take it
And be more than you'd expect from me
More than I should be
But I can take it, or I thought I could
Though this glass is never empty
Pour the hurt away and give it all to me

I couldn't wear these words of meaning
Say them enough to fall on deafened ears
'Cause when it seems like you're stuck out in dark waters
I'll be swimming from the shore to bring you home

When you can't see color and life loses taste
When your heart's left to linger on a choice to make
Pour it into me, give it all to me
When you won't let go of the pain you made
Hold it close so you'll never make the same mistake
Pour it into me, give it all to me

'Cause I can take it, I can take it
And be more than you'd expect of me
More than I should be
But I can take it, or I thought I could
Though this glass is never empty
Pour the hurt away and give it all to me
Take it, I can take it
And be more than you'd expect of me
More than I should be
But I can take it, or I thought I could
Though this glass is never empty
Pour the hurt away and give it all

Take it, or I thought I could
Though this glass is never empty
Pour the hurt away and give it all to me
