[Verse 1]
Well I got a candle, and I've got a spoon
I live in a hallway with no doors, and no rooms
And under a windowsill, they all were found
A touch of concrete within the doorway, without a sound
[Chorus]
Someone save me, if you will
And take away, all these pills
And please just save me, if you can
From the blasphemy, in my wasteland
[Verse 2]
How did I get here, and what went wrong?
Couldn't handle forgiveness, now I'm far, beyond gone
And I can hardly remember, the look of my own eyes
How can I love this, a life so dishonest, it made me compromise
[Chorus]
Someone save me, if you will
And take away, all these pills
And please just save me, if you can
From the blasphemy, in my wasteland
[Bridge]
Jump in the water, jump in with me
Jump on the altar, lay down with me
The hardest question, to answer
Is why, why?
[Chorus]
Someone save me, if you will
And take away, all these pills
And please just save me, if you can
From the blasphemy, in my wasteland
[Outro]
Someone save me
Someone save me
Somebody save me, somebody save me
Please don't erase me
