"Please Take It All Away"
After 20 years, I now have everything
My parents out of my life,
A man who loves me for who I am,
A beautiful little girl,
And a bright future to look forward to.
Yet when I lie next to my love,
Painful flashbacks race through my mind.
Tears sometimes don't escape my eyes,
Otherwise they fall and make a river.
(Chorus) Silently, I pray to God and say:
Please take it all away
No more tears, no more memories, no more fears
Please don't let me suffer anymore.
No more betrayal, no more death, no more reminders
Please take it all away.
Some days, I'll be fine for a while
Till the memories hit me hard again
I curse my mind, wishing it were more like Nina Williams's
So I could never remember my past
As I lie down to go to bed,
I fold my hands and look up at Heaven
(Chorus x2)
