Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Something takes a part of me
Something lost and never seen
Every time I start to believe
Something's raped and taken from me, from me
[Verse 2]
Life's gotta always be messing with me (You wanna see the light)
Can't it chill and let me be free? (So do I)
Can't I take away all this pain? (You wanna see the light)
I try to every night, all in vain, in vain
[PreChorus]
Sometimes I cannot take this place
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste
Sometimes I cannot feel my face
You'll never see me fall from grace
[Chorus]
Something takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me
[Verse 3]
Feeling like a freak on a leash (You wanna see the light)
Feeling like I have no release (So do I)
How many times have I felt diseased? (You wanna see the light)
Nothing in my life is free, is free
[PreChorus]
Sometimes I cannot take this place
Sometimes it's my life I can't taste
Sometimes I cannot feel my face
You'll never see me fall from grace
[Chorus]
Something takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me
[Bridge]
Boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
[Bridge]
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
[Bridge]
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema
Da-boom-na, da-oom, na-na-ema, go!
[Chorus]
So, fight, something on the-ema-uh
Fight, some things they fight
So, something on the-ema-uh
Fight, some things they fight
[Chorus]
Fight, something on the-ema-uh
No, some things they fight
Fight, something on the-ema-uh
Fight, some things they fight
[Chorus]
Something takes a part of me
You and I were meant to be
A cheap fuck for me to lay
Something takes a part of me
[Outro]
Part of me
Part of me
Part of me
