Save Me

All these lights are blinding me
Steady reminding me
I'm on my own, headed home
And I'm thinking about you
These days it's all that I do

I keep on hoping that I'll write a better song
And you'll call me when you hear it
And tell me you were wrong
But the phone, it never rings
The words, they never come to me it seems

If what you said was true
I guess we're doomed
There's nothing left for me to say
To try to prove that I love you
But I just can't love you that way
You never wanted me the way I was
You always tried to change me
But you could never save me

How many evenings can a man spend alone
Before he's lost inside himself again
Chasing what he knows
Is the reason for that feeling
Of not feeling anything at all

And the truth is all it'd take for me
Is one word and a smile
To be right back in that place between love and denial
But I swear that it'd be better
Than sitting here alone and missing you

If what you said was true
I guess we're doomed
There's nothing left for me to say
To try to prove that I love you
But I just can't love you that way
You never wanted me the way I was
You always tried to change me
But you could never save me
