SAVE ME
Am I second rate to what you wanna have?
But baby you're taken, so you make due with what you have
Now I lie awake in the sickly state and I can't breathe
I'm drowning at your own hands, but you don't even see
And baby, you don't know who I think you are
When it comes to the dead dark night, yeah you're my star
And baby, we've walked too far to let this be
So just hold me, baby just hold me
Cuz I thought I was your lady
And I thought you were the one who'd save me
She grabs you by the eyes in the humid sea breeze
So I stare into the sun while my heart burns with this disease
I'm wishing I was blind from time to time, baby so I could breathe
I'm drowning at your own hands, but you don't even see
CHORUS
I come with some demons that will, time to time, say hello
But I've loved you dearly
So tell me when and why you decided to let go
But baby she ain't me
No baby she ain't me
I'm not gonna be second rate to what you wanna have
Cuz baby you're taken and I'm giving you all I have
CHORUS
