Save Myself lyrics

[Verse 1]

I gave all my oxygen to people that could breathe

I gave away my money and now we don't even speak

I drove miles and miles, but would you do the same for me?

Oh, honestly?

Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry upon

Gave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warm

They gave me the heartache and in return I gave a song

It goes on and on and on

[Chorus]

Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels

I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills

And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf

My farewell

So 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 dream

What 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 feels

I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills

And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf

My farewell

So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself

[Verse 3]

But if don't

Then I'll go back

To where I'm rescuing a stranger

Just because they needed saving just like that

Oh, I'm here again

Between the devil and the danger

But I guess it's just my nature

My dad was wrong

'Cause I'm not like my mum

'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a song

But it helps

So before I save someone else

I've got to save myself

[Chorus]

Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels

I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills

And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf

My farewell

So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself

And before I blame someone else, I've got to save myself

And before I love someone else, I've got to love myself
