Savior
A leader and a follower I have been
I've walked the pathways long since worn from stone to dust
The change of many seasons I have seen
Now the veil of winter chills my bones and steals my lust
Take my gloves and jacket, take my army blanket
Carry on with tales of love and hate and madness
Take my ring and cash, here, I don't need to have them
We'll share a drink before you go
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you when the sun goes down
Savior, save me - Everybody's trying to rescue me
Won't everybody let me be so I could just lay down and die
Oh why, everybody wants to be by my side
Why don't they just let me be so I could just lay down with pride
Know why, nobody wants to compromise
Why won't they just let me be so I could just hold onto my pride
Sweet pride, everybody should be dancing under streetlights
Why won't they just set me free so I could just lay down and die
The hands that I was given now I can't feel
I think of how they cared for me and made me strong
Blessed are the winds that steal my heat
And fill my head with reverie - the thoughts of home
Now and then you have to thank the gods that have you
Write the pages of this storybook we live through
Take my gloves and jacket, I don't need to have them
One last thing before you go
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Savior, save me - Everybody's trying to rescue me
Won't everybody let me be so I could just lay down and die
Oh why, everybody wants to be by my side
Why don't they just let me be so I could just lay down with pride
Know why, nobody wants to compromise
Why won't they just let me be so I could just hold onto my pride
Sweet pride, everybody should be dancing under streetlights
Why won't they just set me free so I could just lay down and die
I can see stars
I've walked the pathways long since worn from stone to dust
The change of many seasons I have seen
Now the veil of winter chills my bones and steals my lust
Take my gloves and jacket, take my army blanket
Carry on with tales of love and hate and madness
Take my ring and cash, here, I don't need to have them
We'll share a drink before you go
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you when the sun goes down
Savior, save me - Everybody's trying to rescue me
Won't everybody let me be so I could just lay down and die
Oh why, everybody wants to be by my side
Why don't they just let me be so I could just lay down with pride
Know why, nobody wants to compromise
Why won't they just let me be so I could just hold onto my pride
Sweet pride, everybody should be dancing under streetlights
Why won't they just set me free so I could just lay down and die
The hands that I was given now I can't feel
I think of how they cared for me and made me strong
Blessed are the winds that steal my heat
And fill my head with reverie - the thoughts of home
Now and then you have to thank the gods that have you
Write the pages of this storybook we live through
Take my gloves and jacket, I don't need to have them
One last thing before you go
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Think of me in the morning light
I'll think of you as the sun goes down
Savior, save me - Everybody's trying to rescue me
Won't everybody let me be so I could just lay down and die
Oh why, everybody wants to be by my side
Why don't they just let me be so I could just lay down with pride
Know why, nobody wants to compromise
Why won't they just let me be so I could just hold onto my pride
Sweet pride, everybody should be dancing under streetlights
Why won't they just set me free so I could just lay down and die
I can see stars
