Save Myself
[Verse 1]I gave all my oxygen to people that could breatheI gave away my money and now we don't even speakI drove miles and miles, but would you do the same for me?Oh, honestly?Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry uponGave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warmThey gave me the heartache and in return I gave a songIt goes on and on and on
[Chorus]Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feelsI drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pillsAnd all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelfMy farewellSo before I save someone else, I've got to save myself
[Verse 2]I gave you all my energy and I took away your pain'Cause human beings are destined to radiate or dreamWhat line do we stand upon 'cause from here looks the same?And only scars remain
[Chorus]Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feelsI drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pillsAnd all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelfMy farewellSo before I save someone else, I've got to save myself
[Verse 3]But if don'tThen I'll go backTo where I'm rescuing a strangerJust because they needed saving just like thatOh, I'm here againBetween the devil and the dangerBut I guess it's just my natureMy dad was wrong'Cause I'm not like my mum'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a songBut it helpsSo before I save someone elseI've got to save myself
[Chorus]Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feelsI drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pillsAnd all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelfMy farewellSo before I save someone else, I've got to save myselfAnd before I blame someone else, I've got to save myselfAnd before I love someone else, I've got to love myself
