Saved
[Verse 1]
Do you believe that it's been this long?
Do you believe that I'm so far gone?
The time passes so fast it's like I'm racing through a dream
At night vision fighting for my life, isn't it?
How do I keep my chin above the water?
How do I search it then, when I ain't got a
Ounce of energy left here inside?
My heart shriveled and my tears are dry, it's like
I'm livin' in a room with no windows
Feel I'ma die real soon stayin' in closed
Trapped in this seriality
I cannot see anything that lies ahead of me
Opportunities gone in my mind
Still I sing this song, when will I leave?
The monotony, what's stoppin' me
Leave, and then the grief that's on top of me
[Chorus]
I've been down and dark
But so alone apart from
Everyone I know
Where am I to go?
Gotta find peace of mind
Lookin' for some kinda sign
But then I rise up above
I'm saved by your love
[Verse 2]
It seems wrong that I seem like this, it seems
I've gone straight down the abyss, head first
In a free fall, jerks and it's worst, as my neck rips back and it's whiplash crash
I know it's better to come up for air
I know I'd rather not hold my breath down there
But almost suffocating, lungs collapsed
Feeling I can touch death, perhaps
I gotta get real low to get right again
I need to find control if I'ma fight again
My mental situation's chaos, it turns and it tosses
Reliving each one of my losses
Sanity gone in my mind, still I sing this song
When will I learn how to turn tragedy upside down?
Learn how to burn memories up right now
[Chorus]
I've been down and dark
But so alone apart from
Everyone I know
Where am I to go?
Gotta find peace of mind
Lookin' for some kinda sign
But then I rise up above
I'm saved by your love
[Verse 3]
How many times have I felt this way?
How many times have I lost another day?
But when you come, the sin is done, you're a godsend
Such a good friend, always there to pick me up again
It's like a light goes on when you're with me
The night's not so long when you're sitting
Alongside my bed, so still and calm
Brushing my face, I thank you mom for all the joy and the love you exude
For always bein' nothin' less than true
It's been a ride but I've had you [?] and you then, my friend
Happiness here in my mind, and I see so clear, I know why
Feel with every real ounce of my being
Feel and there's no concealing
[Chorus]
I've been down and dark
But so alone apart from
Everyone I know
Where am I to go?
Gotta find peace of mind
Lookin' for some kinda sign
But then I rise up above
I'm saved by your love
[Bridge]
I'm drowning, surrounding
The water, my head's pounding
Can't swim, can't stay afloat
Don't know how I'm supposed
To work everything out
This hurts and the pain's so loud
Ringing in my ears now, confirming all my fears now
[Verse 4]
I blink and I think and I stop and I shrink
And I disappear into nothingness
Everything's just such a mess
Life is never just a board game
And life will always bring you more pain
But likewise, if you keep your eyes wide and you got a bit of luck then you just might find
Someone who will stand by you
Someone who will suffer, too
And when you find them, you must remind them
How they changed your life
And how you will survive
[Chorus]
I've been down and dark
But so alone apart from
Everyone I know
Where am I to go?
Gotta find peace of mind
Lookin' for some kinda sign
But then I rise up above
I'm saved by your love
