Dismembered Memory - August Burns Red

Take care of the care taker

Say these words before you meet your maker

Take care of the care taker

This catastrophe

Has been years in the making

They saw the advantage

You were there for the taking

Carry the guilt

Of letting a loved one down (one down)

We’re all holding the burden

Of watching you fall (you fall)

This won’t be your final curtain call

Trusted they were safe in your hands

Your oath be damned

Just another hypocrite’s plan

Your oath be damned

The lows feel like days

The highs escape in minutes (minutes)

Go back to when everything was clear

The act of waking up didn’t instill fear

This is a conflict you can conquer

It’s just mind over matter

The reality of the situation

This may take some meditation

You’ll need some help to figure out this equation

And find out why things aren’t lining up inside

Your internal clock isn’t winding right

The pressure is building

It’s more than you can take

Take care of the care taker

Say these words before you meet your maker

Take care of the care taker

This won’t be how you are remembered

It is a conflict you can conquer

This won’t be how are you are remembered

Rewrite the script, and start over (over)

Start over (over)

Trusted they were safe in your hands

Your oath be damned

Just another hypocrite’s plan

Your oath be damned

Your oath be damned

(You oath be damned)

Carry the guilt

Of letting a love one down (one down)

We’re all holding the burden

Of watching you fall
