Saved

I came to your rescue
Took you out of this place
Where there's neither patience nor pity

Nothing will last
And nobody stays
In this fleeting and shallow city

Here people expect
Their lovers, their friends
Their children and even their god

To arrive
At little cost and time
Just to have what's trendy and mod

And God forbid
If you're out of step
What would happen then
You gotta join the dance
Get your ass on the floor
Success is your only friend
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin
But I saved you
I saved you from this place
I freed you
From this foolish race

To another dance
For another chance
You simply couldn't stay
So you had no say

But I saved you
In my own way

Here people will gladly
Exchange your faith for sex
And all sex for power

And the greatest concern
At the end of the day
Is to end up as a wallflower

And God forbid
If you're out of step
What would happen then
You gotta join the dance
Get your ass on the floor
Success is your only friend

But I saved you
I saved you from this place
I freed you
From this foolish race

To another dance
For another chance
You simply couldn't stay
So you had no say

But I saved you
In my own way

I don't know if you ever thank me
If you even call it a rescue
But if I asked you ahead you wouldn't agree
So I made the decision for you

Someone would call it abduction
An encroachment upon your free flow
But my love gave me the instructions
I just couldn't let you go

But I saved you
I saved you from this place
I freed you
From this foolish race

I saved you
I saved you from this place
I freed you
From this foolish race

I saved you
I saved you from this place
I freed you
From this foolish race

To another dance
For another chance
You simply couldn't stay
So you had no say

But I saved you
In my own way
