Dylan Wright – TAKE ME AS I AM Lyrics

TAKE ME AS I AM – Dylan Wright Lyrics

Pill bottles rattling like a snake on the floor

I was beating down the frame of that locked bedroom door

My body shaking, I was scared and confused

At sixteen years old with too damn much to lose

Red and blue shadows that were dancing on the wall

The silence broke heavy with the weight of it all

My mind kept racing, just trying to understand

'Cause life ain't gonna wait to turn this child into a man

Don't let me go when the lights go out

I'm a broken soul trying to figure this out

I ain't perfect, Lord, and I don't know how

But I need you to take me as I am

As I am right now

I grew up too early, saw the pain thеre in her eyеs

She was breaking in the silence, I was learning to survive

Giving all she could 'til there's nothing left to show

And I've held on to that pain everywhere that I go

My mind kept racing, just trying to understand

'Cause life ain't gonna wait to turn this child into a man

Don't let me go when the lights go out

I'm a broken soul trying to figure this out

I ain't perfect, Lord, and I don't know how

But I need you to take me as I am right now

I may lead you lost, I may let you down

With what's left of my heart that I'm dragging around

I'm patching up the pieces, holding on somehow

But I need you to take me as I am right now

I promise you I'm fine

No, I wouldn't tell a lie

I swear I'm way too strong

I ain't holding on and on

Been a while since I've cried

Never had a reason why

Tell myself it's alright

I ain't holding on and on and on

Can't promise you I'm fine

Know it hurts you when I lie

Oh, Ma, I ain't so strong

I ain't holding on and on and on

All I seem to do is cry

You're every reason why

You tell me it's alright

Keep holding on and on and on and on

Don't let me go when the lights go out

I'm a broken soul trying to figure this out

I ain't perfect, Lord, and I don't know how

But I need you to take me as I am right now

I may lead you lost, I may let you down

With what's left of my heart that I'm dragging around

I'm patching up the pieces, holding on somehow

But I need you to take me as I am right now

As I am (As I am right now, as I am)

Right now (As I am right now, as I am)

Oh yeah (As I am right now, as I am)

As I am right now (As I am right now)
