Take Lyrics

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
Take, take all you can
From the life you’ve been given
And stop making plans

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
This world is all that you need
You just have to notice
Remember to breathe

[Refrain: Dave Gahan]
There’s a price that you pay
With the games that you play with that devil
And you better be sure when you walk through that door before you meddle
Life is so short and you’re going to get caught being bought
And the choices you make and the demons you wake must be fought

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
Take, take all you can
From the life you’ve been given
And stop making plans

[Refrain: Dave Gahan]
There’s a price that you pay
With the games you play with that devil
And you better be sure when you walk through that door before you meddle
The life is so short and you’re going to get caught being bought
And the choices you make and the demons you wake must be fought

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
