[Intro:]
Save me
Save me
[Verse:]
Tantalizing thoughts in my head
Words that keep bringing up what you said
Your still small voice is the one I ignored once again
[Verse:]
I made you a pawn in my game
Knowing you're one that I can't replace
Mirroring scars that you planned for me to escape
[Chorus:]
Change my life
This can't take me over
This can't take me over
Lord can you hear me
This can't take me over
This can't take me over
I know you warned me
But I need you
To save me, save me, save me from this fall
To save me, save me, save me from it all
Save me from myself
[Verse:]
I'm wiping the tears from my face
Feels like the floor has been pulled from me
I've tasted the apple and now I see what shouldn't be
[Verse:]
How do I run from the poison
Seems like sins latched onto me
I've got to get over this flesh that I'm under
This just ain't what I need, no
[Chorus x2]
