5 Seconds of Summer - Take My Hand Lyrics

A painted heart on a sidewalk

A bleeding sun on a silver screen

I feel my ego when I talk

Lost myself in the in between



Lustful eyes filled with love now

Sending in every cavalry

A few more souls on the bus now

Shut my eyes right at seventeen



Always hits me

I'm always shifting



Take my hand, now and forever

Where I stand, how can you live and let die?

Young man, look in the mirror

Take my hand and don't you ever let go

(Take my hand, now and forever)

(Take my hand, now and forever)

Don't you ever let go

(Take my hand, now and forever)

(Take my hand, now and forever)



Told myself maybe someday

I'd fall down from the centerpiece

I treat my mind like an ashtray

I owe you an apology



Breaking plans on a Sunday

With myself maybe make some peace

I forgot every birthday

Open eyes right at twenty-three



Always hits me, yeah

I'm always shifting



Take my hand, now and forever

Where I stand, how can you live and let die?

Young man, look in the mirror

Take my hand and don't you ever let go

(Take my hand, now and forever)

(Take my hand, now and forever)

Don't you ever let go

(Take my hand, now and forever)

(Take my hand, now and forever)



Pick apart all of the pieces, well, I'm running out of time

Iron out all of the creases and just hang it out to dry

Shallow hearts for shallow minds that ache to be alive

You fall apart and redefine what keeps you up at night



Oh, take my hand, now and forever

Where I stand just as you're losing yourself again

Look in the mirror



Take my hand, now and forever

Where I stand, how can you live and let die?

Young man, look in the mirror

Take my hand and don't you ever let go

(Take my hand, now and forever)

(Take my hand, now and forever)

Don't you ever let go

(Take my hand, now and forever)

(Take my hand, now and forever)
