Don't take me for granted

Bad memories that I have
floated around in my head
are dragging me to dance solo

You can never escape your true self
Or try to hide your life upon a shelf
And lock the door
And throw away the key
You've gotta face reality
And give up all your fantasies
And focus on what you really mean

When you fall oh, you must rise
Don´t let yourself get paralyzed
it's not what I'm aiming for

Don't take me for granted
don't close the door
and hope that I'm asleep

Don't take me for granted
You'll never try
To figure out my dreams with me

You never understood, you never tried to help
When I was feeling down, you always seemed to put me
In a trance that I couldn't wake up

I never took control of my own life
I didn't know how to get along, I was helpless
Not able to be with anything

You've gotta face reality
And give up all your fantasies
And focus on what you really mean

When you fall oh, you must rise
Don´t let yourself get paralyzed
it's not what I'm aiming for

Don't take me for granted
don't close the door
and hope that I'm asleep

Don't take me for granted
You'll never try
To figure out my dreams with me

I want you and I need you to help me
to help me, to help me
I want you and I need you alone
I feel without you, without you

Don't take me for granted
don't close the door
and hope that I'm asleep

Don't take me for granted
You'll never try
To figure out my dreams
