I was diagnosed with a fear of getting too close
Had to tell the ones I love, I was on the ropes
I'm not the only one whose life's been pulled apart
Spending one year and three months in the dark
So here we are, all dressed to kill, where should we go?
Into the wild again to face the great unknown
And have the midnight conversations
You and I postponed...
You saved my life, not once but twice
You keep me free from falling...
You saved my life, make it all alright
When I don't feel like talking...
You make sure I always see the daylight (oh oh oh)
It's amazing what the hard times can reveal (oh oh oh)
Like who shows up, who walks away, and who's for real (oh oh oh)
So take me on, I'll take the wheel and we can both outrun the past (oh oh oh)
We will always live forever if we don't look back (oh oh oh)
You saved my life, not once but twice
You keep me free from falling...
You saved my life, make it all alright
When I don't feel like talking...
You make sure I always see the daylight
It's amazing what the hard times can reveal (have faith that you're not alone)
Like who shows up, who walks away, and who's for real (have faith that you're not on your own)
It's amazing what the hard times can reveal (have faith that you're not alone)
Like who shows up, who walks away, and who's for real (have faith that you're not on your own)
Who shows up, who walks away, and who's for real (have faith that you're not alone)
You saved my life, not once but twice
You keep me free from falling...
You saved my life, make it all alright
When I don't feel like talking...
You make sure I always see the daylight.
Had to tell the ones I love, I was on the ropes
Spending one year and three months in the dark
Into the wild again to face the great unknown
You and I postponed...
You keep me free from falling...
You saved my life, make it all alright
When I don't feel like talking...
Like who shows up, who walks away, and who's for real (oh oh oh)
We will always live forever if we don't look back (oh oh oh)
You keep me free from falling...
You saved my life, make it all alright
When I don't feel like talking...
You keep me free from falling...
You saved my life, make it all alright
When I don't feel like talking...

To me the lines
"I was diagnosed with a fear of getting too close Had to tell the ones I love, I was on the ropes"
come accross as someone who is fully surrendering him to his significant other of friends, but at the same time has to confess that things are not going great and he's standing on the proverbial edge of life.
"I'm not the only one whose life's been pulled apart Spending one year and three months in the dark"
Sounds to me like the C19 lockdown we all went through, which made a lot of things difficult, both in business as in relationships.
I think the song in general is a shout out to everyone struggling with being alone and having fake friends. Sone people dont notice whos "real" or if they "show up".
