I am a hostage to my own humanity.

I made a habit of never making promises
That aren’t easy to keep.
There you have it, but now I’ll make you one that is:
To keep you here with me.

‘Cause every second that goes by,
I feel it’s just a waste of time
If I’m not with you.

If home is where the heart is,
Then my home is where you are,
But it’s getting oh so hard
To spend these days without my heart.

So I’m taking you with me–
Anywhere that I could ever wanna be.
For the rest of my life,
I want you there with me.
And if there ever comes a time,
When I should have to leave,
I hope you know that I–
I’m taking you with me!

And so I’m trying, to hold it all together and
Make it through the day.
When I’m just dyin’ to drop it all and take your hand,
So we can run away

From all the miles and the hours
That seem to endlessly devour
The time that I could be with you.

Every second that goes by
Is one more second of my life,
And it couldn’t be more clear
That I would die without you here.
And every second that goes by
Is one more second of my life,
And it couldn’t be more clear
I’m dyin’ without you here.
Yeah, every second that goes by…

So I’m taking you with me!
- Relient K, I’m Taking You With Me
