Save me..
There she goes
Down the drain
Washing all
Of her dreams away
If she would only
Quit with the pot
If only she was sober
More often then not
But she chooses this path
It leads her astray..
But I am her daughter
And I'm not giving up, no way..
I will pull her throught this loop
I will yank away that beer
I wont let her touch a joint
If its the last thing she holds dear..
Down the drain
Washing all
Of her dreams away
If she would only
Quit with the pot
If only she was sober
More often then not
But she chooses this path
It leads her astray..
But I am her daughter
And I'm not giving up, no way..
I will pull her throught this loop
I will yank away that beer
I wont let her touch a joint
If its the last thing she holds dear..
My arms move against my wish,
or rather, against my command.
Through the blackened water,
and joining both our hands.
Hair that is matted and filthy,
still I'll brush it from your face.
Breathing life into your chest,
until your lungs have steady pace.
No monsters can hurt you if I'm right here,
even my subconcious would save you.
We can rest if you want, if you can.
And yes, dear... I love you too.
Believe it if you'd like,
if you dare, if you wish.
Still, remember who saved you here,
With one little kiss.
or rather, against my command.
Through the blackened water,
and joining both our hands.
Hair that is matted and filthy,
still I'll brush it from your face.
Breathing life into your chest,
until your lungs have steady pace.
No monsters can hurt you if I'm right here,
even my subconcious would save you.
We can rest if you want, if you can.
And yes, dear... I love you too.
Believe it if you'd like,
if you dare, if you wish.
Still, remember who saved you here,
With one little kiss.
My dearest love for once again
Your drowning in pain
My hands work fast to pry the blade
Your strong grip still in place
You saved me once its time to return the favor
Its really too bad you ignore my labor
My dearest love im not letting go
Only death will be the final blow
Society tries to tear us apart
When really we're just not sharing our plot
Stopping your doom
Our hearts are a bloom
We hold one another close
As a very small toast
You say thank you my love
My deeds could never come that close
Your drowning in pain
My hands work fast to pry the blade
Your strong grip still in place
You saved me once its time to return the favor
Its really too bad you ignore my labor
My dearest love im not letting go
Only death will be the final blow
Society tries to tear us apart
When really we're just not sharing our plot
Stopping your doom
Our hearts are a bloom
We hold one another close
As a very small toast
You say thank you my love
My deeds could never come that close

Save me
can you, will you?
I have been broken
in way more than two
Help me
will you try?
To do what you can
to keep me alive
Take it
can you break it from my grasp?
The blade I know as my friend
that begs for the next attck
Can you?
No, will you now?
Or have I destroyed
everything I ever cared about
can you, will you?

Can you?
No, will you now?
Or have I destroyed
everything I ever cared about
Save me
Pining for nothing
the words undone
yesterday’s promises
gone to the dusts
Its dead and gone
How trite the sorrow
of promises made
never meant to come true
Standing on this ledge
Between two worlds
To leave or stay
From the 10th floor
To nod to grief
Or fight to live
After so much lies
Where else do I go.
Save me now
O angel of perdition
Fold your wings
over me and soar me away
If to the east
I will return
and to the west
eternal sleep awaits.

I'd like to say I save a life,
But no, just her sanity.
There is no credit,
In calming down-
A lovely crying girl.
What I like to think,
Is that she have hope.
For the life she lives.
And when she's down,
Crying out-
I'll always be here.
Listening...
No helping hand-
No drowning person to save.
Just a girl,
Who loses hope-
From time to time.
It's just a friend-
I gave a shoulder,
An ear and an honest eye.
So that today-
No need to cry.
But no, just her sanity.
There is no credit,

A lovely crying girl.

For the life she lives.
And when she's down,

No need to cry.
Okay this has the term save me in it so does it count?
My endless sleep
Shinedown blasting on my radio
"Someone save me if you will"
I swallow a few xanax
"And take away all these pills"
I swallow a bottle of Jack Daniels
"And please just save me if you can"
I write goodbye, its your fault
"From my blasphemy in my wasteland"
I just fall to sleep
"Someone save me"
My endless sleep
"Someone save me
Somebody save me
Somebody save me
Please don't erase me"
Save me by shinedown, all rights are owned by them, I am only a fan and I love their work
My endless sleep
Shinedown blasting on my radio
"Someone save me if you will"
I swallow a few xanax
"And take away all these pills"

"And please just save me if you can"
I write goodbye, its your fault
"From my blasphemy in my wasteland"
I just fall to sleep
"Someone save me"
My endless sleep
"Someone save me
Somebody save me
Somebody save me
Please don't erase me"
Save me by shinedown, all rights are owned by them, I am only a fan and I love their work
the few
I see the tides of the water now
With one foot in and another out
Seems deeper now than ever before
My foot can touch the ocean floor
Now as the leaves rest on the pool
Disrupting the starving, gasping school
The surface is playful but dangerous too
The leaves are ripped and remain few
Those few now brave the dangers beyond
The current sweeps, our few are gone
Lost adrift at blinding speeds
Far from Love or other needs
Now our few will learn by themselves
Saved by those who further delve
Inside the waters of death they say,
“Children are drowning and must be saved!”

Only If You Must
I meander across
the wasteland ,
looking at the moss
that's gathered around ,
reminders of a once
misguided ventures lost
good times frozen in frost
lie littered , in no sound .
Silence upon
the battlefield
craters from bombs
that hurt , and I still feel ,
lying at the bottom
are old corpses of a me ,
with the parts that are now numb
from the way I used to feel .
No wind , no dust
in the air at all
just the ground , the crust
of where I always fall ,
I'm covered in rust .
hearing olden voices call ,
save me if you must
I'm trapped alone once more .
