lyrics

I can see that your mind is made up
After all the energy I'd take up
I fear now that nothing can save us
'Cause both of us - neither one of us - is the same us
See, I don’t even blame you for the
Where-what-when-how
Now it’s all pointless to care
But I know
I treated you badly
But hardly a reason to let your madness mandate
Your
Thoughts and actions
Just take a second and you’ll see
I’m the man that you thought I was
There is no place that I’d rather be than
In your arms with all this behind us
So please put the gun down angel
We can both find peace of mind
And
If you just give me one more chance
I swear on everything it’ll be different this time

When I was a young man my father told me
Hold everything that you love closely
Don’t let it slip through
When I said I loved you
I thought that you did, too
And now I’m sorry for what I did
Can’t you find it in your heart just to forgive
Can’t you remember a little piece of what we had
'Cause if you pull the trigger, sweetie
There’s no turning back

Save me
My baby’s got a bullet with my name
She wants to put it inside my brain
I fucked things up
Isn’t that enough?
What can I say?
I’m sorry I couldn’t give you everything
I’m sorry I couldn't
I’m sorry isn’t please

I never said that I was innocent
So isn’t it
Typical that, of course, a compulsive sinner
Would sin again?
The two of us like a courtroom with its litigants
Pinned against one another convinced
The other shouldn’t win against
So I guess in a sense
I’ll end up the victim
Why do my pleas seem to fall on deaf ears and
I’m so sorry for the hurt that I caused you
The kind of darkness that grows over the years and
I can see that it’s consumed the whole of you
There’s nothing left of the you I thought I knew
Oh, darling, I can still feel a soul in you
Should’ve said goodbye and just let go of you
But I didn’t
I tried to hold on
Where on earth did we both go so wrong?
The same song repeats itself all day long
So until then
So long

When I was a young man my mother told me
Hold everything that you love closely
Don’t let it slip through
You just have to hang on
Even if it kills you
So if this is my final goodbye I
Want you to know that I honestly tried I
Tell you I love you one last time
You couldn’t save me but I’ll still
See you on the other side

Save me
My baby’s got a bullet with my name
She wants to put it inside my brain
I fucked things up
Isn’t that enough?
What can I say?
I’m sorry I couldn’t give you everything
I’m sorry I couldn't
I’m sorry isn’t please

There's nothing left of the you I thought I knew
When I said I loved you
I thought that you did, too
Save me
