Sometimes I wish that you could see
The way you look at me
If you only saw things through my eyes
Would you finally understand
Or just like grains of sand
Would it slip right through our hands
Time will keep moving on and on

[Hook:]

I don't wanna lose you
But maybe I might have to
It's all I really can do
To save myself
Is this what it's come to
Deep inside we both knew
The day would come I'd have to
Save myself

Love that lifts you up I've found
Can also wear you down
If you could only hear my prayer
I tried to fly without my wings
But there's so many things
That were left up in the air
Time will keep moving on and on

[Hook]

[Bridge:]

You reach a point in life
You have to decide
Between what you want
And what you need to survive

[Hook]

Stop
Take a minute take a breath
From the pressure from the need to know why
What makes you a-li-i-i-i-i-i-i-ive
Why do we rely on ourselves
Putting God up on a shelf we depend
On what's left in our hands

It feels right and we believe
There won't be a suddenly
But we keep running faster
Isn't it so nice to think
If we lived in harmony
There'd be a happy ever after

[CHORUS]
It doesn't matter if I
Have faith to move a mountain
Drink the ocean dry
Baby, I could never save myself
It doesn't matter if I
Can reach into the deepest
Corners of my mind
Baby, I could never save myself

Stop
We put God in a box
Spend our time watching the clock while we wait
For a release that will take us away
We come down with a crash
But do we have another chance to go back?
Is that gonna make it OK?

Hold your breath and you will see
In the end you'll have to breathe
But we keep running faster
Fast we forget reality
If you fall you're gonna bleed
There is no happy ever after

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]
Falling out under sorrow
Glimpses of the past of
What I used to think and
Who I used to be
I'm realizing all this frailty
That I hide in me

It doesn't matter
If I defy the laws of gravity
The mystery
I could neva' save myself
It doesn't matter
If I started over
In my own world
I could neva save myself
It doesn't matter if I, if I, if I I I I I

[Chorus 2xs]

Save myself
Save myself
Save myself
Save myself
