I reached out to BAZZ/wndrlst via email and after a few exchanges, he sent me an entrancing guitar beat. I wrote the entire song in 30 minutes and it ended becoming my first release of 2018. “Rescue” is the lead single on my debut EP “BOATS”.
[Verse 1]
You like to get high
Time is passing by
You don't see it
You don't see it
Always telling lies
Cutting all your ties
You're poison
You're poison
[Pre Chorus]
But something bout you makes me wanna love you
Even when I shouldn't, really know I shouldn't
And something bout you makes me wanna save you
Even though I couldn't, I know couldn't
[Chorus]
You're slipping, falling off into the darkness
Wish that I could reach you
Wish that I could rescue you
You're tripping, breaking down into the rubble
Wish that I could help you
Wish that I could rescue you
No, It ain't safe and sound
No, Nobody's around
No, it ain't safe and no it ain't safe and no it ain't safe for you
You're slipping, falling off into the darkness
Wish that I could reach you
Wish that I could rescue you
[Verse 2]
Fire in your eyes
Been gone for awhile
They don't miss you
They don't miss you
Tired so you cry
Give up for the night
Cuz you see it
Yeah you see it
[Pre Chorus]
But something bout you makes me wanna love you
Even when I shouldn't, really know I shouldn't
And something bout you makes me wanna save you
Even though I couldn't, I know couldn't
[Chorus]
You're slipping, falling off into the darkness
Wish that I could reach you
Wish that I could rescue you
You're tripping, breaking down into the rubble
Wish that I could help you
Wish that I could rescue you
No, It ain't safe and sound
No, Nobody's around
No, it ain't safe and no it ain't safe and no it ain't safe for you
You're slipping, falling off into the darkness
Wish that I could reach you
Wish that I could rescue you
[Outro]
I'll be the one to rescue you
I'll be there, be there for you
I'll be the one to rescue you
