Verse 1:

It’s quiet now, but the weight won’t lift,

This heavy heart aches like it’s begging for a fix.

The pills line up like a steady refrain,

Loneliness and sorrow hiding in my veins.

Pre-Chorus:

Do I take one for the ache?

Two for the doubt?

Three for the nights

I can’t figure out.

Chorus:

Oh, take the pain away…

Can you take the pain away…

Close my eyes, let it pull me under,

Oh, take the pain away…

A quiet escape wrapped in a bitter wonder.

Can you take the pain away…

Verse 2:

The promises fade, but they’re easy to trust,

Each little pill feels like it’s made of dust.

I don’t want to go, but I’m scared to stay,

The line between relief and ruin feels so gray.

Pre-Chorus:

Do I take one for the ache?

Two for the doubt?

Three for the nights

I can’t figure out.

Chorus:

Oh, take the pain away…

Can you take the pain away…

Close my eyes, let it pull me under,

Oh, take the pain away…

A quiet escape wrapped in a bitter wonder.

Can you take the pain away… (can you take it away?)

Bridge:

Is this how it ends, a quiet release?

A moment of stillness that feels like peace?

I’m not sure if I want to go,

But the weight is heavy, and I’m moving slow.

Chorus

Oh, take the pain away… (Take it away)

Can you take the pain away… (Please, please)

Swollow the silence, let it take me in?

Can you take the pain away?

Numb the edges, soft in my skin

Can you take the pain away?

Outro

One for the ache, two for the pain,

Three for the nights I can’t explain.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll find my way…

But tonight, I’ll let it take me away.
