Lyrics
Saviour
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Looking for someone I could call a friend
Lost like a leaf blowing in the wind
Praying to a picture on the wall
But that won't do no good at all
Oh father, I'm in trouble deep
Oh mother, all I do is sleep
Oh sister, can you feel my grief tonight
Not looking for a saviour
'Cause I'm the one to blame, yeah
Somebody tell me how can I survive
Not looking for a hero
But I can't even see how
I'm gonna make it out of this alive
I was always desperate to be saved
Mad at being loved, mad at change
Swaying like a sailor in the sea
Want someone to anchor me
Ain't nothing that the lord don't see
The lies, the guilt won't shelter me
I'm looking for security, tonight
Not looking for a saviour
'Cause I'm the one to blame, yeah
Somebody tell me how can I survive
Not looking for a hero
But I can't even see how
I'm gonna make it out of this alive
Help me please, I need to speak to somebody
I'm feeling weak and I don't wanna believe
It's happening, it's happening to me
Save me
No I'm not even asking for another chance
Not looking for a lover or another new romance
I never been the type to ask somebody else
But tonight, I'm asking for your help
Not looking for a saviour
'Cause I'm the one to blame, yeah
Somebody tell me how can I survive
Not looking for a hero
But I can't even see how
I'm gonna make it out of this alive
Help me please, I need to speak to somebody
I'm feeling weak and I don't wanna believe
It's happening, it's happening to me
Save me (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
