Save Me

See me take my bows
And I'm heading for the exit
I can't stick around
This life's been hard
And I can't see the sense in fighting it anymore
Can't you let me go?
Won't you show me the door?
'Cause I've made mistakes
And have hurt the ones I've loved
And I've thrown them under the bus
One too many times.
There can be no redemption for a sinner such as I
Won't you wish me to the cornfield now?
Won't you help me stop living a lie?
So here I am in the corner of a dark room
The same way I began
Alone with these mournful thoughts
And a loaded gun in my hand
But a foolish part of me
Still holds out for a shred of humanity
For a queen in a robe, or a knight on a steed
Can't you see that I'm just a child on his knees?
Save me from fear and pain
And love will rain on me
Save me today
Before tomorrow finds me at rest
Save me from fear and pain
And love come down and rain on me
Save me today
For tomorrow will find me at rest
Now I'm standing alone in the moment of truth
As the judgement's handed down
And my feet are scarred by the broken glass
Strewn across the ground
Then you come to my side
And only to you I confide
That I've been battered and shattered and bruised and abused
For the very, very last time
Won't you help me, just
Save me from fear and pain
And love rain on me
Save me, save me today
For tomorrow will find me at rest
Save me from fear and pain
And love will rain on me
Save me today
For tomorrow, find me at rest
