Here To Save Me

[Intro: Elusive]
Sometimes I wonder..
If I'd of lived my life differently..
Would I have still ended up here?
But then I think..
Maybe I would have been even more alone..
Yo..
Here we go..

[Verse 1: Elusive]
I knew a girl so sweet, I couldn't speak her name
She was beautiful, and treated me the same
I'd been through hell, but it helped
Cause the further down I fell, I felt the closer we became
And she was there, when I wished to die
I wrote Standing Still for you, now I ain't need to lie
I was only getting high, sick of always coming up short
So I fought, until you taught me to fly
And I could see the sky, it's like a movie
But you ain't seeing it, you're seeing right through me
Made me promise not to leave, and then you left
It's ironic, but I guess it shows how well you knew me
And it's sad, but the fault's mine
Cause my heart's on a fault-line
I think of you, when I see the sun
Like I'm the moon - so you're the reason, that we both shine..

[Hook: DMB]
Save me, I can be..
Anything you need, if I had you to..
Save me, I'd be set free..
From everything I feel.. if I knew..
You were here to save me..

[Verse 2: Elusive]
What happened next, is my only guess
I gave you all I had, how'd you owe me less?
You took what you want from me
And I accept, now I am kept company by the loneliness
But the fact is, I'd never been as tense
I thought I did love her, and in a sense
I guess it's true, but I never knew
The only thing I ever loved about you, was your innocence
And I've been bitter since, see it won't end
It's like I'm reading every message that you don't send
Honesty has a cost, cause when I opened up
I know I lost a lot more than a close friend
But I'd rather tell the truth, than show remorse
So my soul's got more holes than a golf course
I'll just sit and wait, cause I was filled with all this hate
Till I learnt fate is something that you can't force..

[Hook]

[Verse 3: DMB]
Let me tell you how this man was made
We'd stick together like a marinade
You said I am a man, I can cope
Then shoved your hand down my throat, and turned my heart into a hand grenade
I never knew I could understand
So much pain - no more upper hand
Cause I'm talking to the rain
As I walk into this train, I know you're safe in another land
Now I'm lying in the dirt
I wish these creases could be ironed like a shirt
Foot is heavy on the throttle, if you're ready for tomorrow
Go and empty out your bottle, because crying doesn't hurt..

[Hook]
