SAVE ME

Verse 1:
The neon city sleeps beneath the haze
Another night I chased down all the wrong ways
I stand here on this bridge of broken vows
A thousand voices screaming in my head right now
Tried to be the captain, sail my ship alone
Found myself adrift on a sea of stone
Lookin' for a lifeline in the cold, black night
Just need a single spark to bring back the light

Pre-Chorus:
I built these walls of pride up to the sky
Told myself the strength to fall was just a lie
But the tower's shakin', the foundation's torn
I'm finally admitting I was never born... TO WALK ALONE!

Chorus:
SAVE ME! From the hell I dug beneath my feet SAVE ME!
'Cause the victory is bitter-sweet
I'm out of heroes, I'm out of fight
Won't you reach down and pull me into the light?
This ain't a cry for fame, no, this ain't a cry for gold
It's just the whisper of a desperate soul
JESUS, SAVE ME!
Take this shattered heart and make it whole!

Verse 2:
I remember praying with a fire in my youth
A reckless faith that stood upon
Your truth But the world got loud and the promise grew dim
I chased the empty fix, the praise of mortal men
I traded every blessing for a cheap disguise
Now I'm standin' naked 'neath accusing eyes
The stage lights fade, the curtain drops, the music dies
And all that's left is the echo of my lonely cries

Pre-Chorus:
I built these walls of pride up to the sky
Told myself the strength to fall was just a lie
But the tower's shakin', the foundation's torn
I'm finally admitting I was never born...
TO WALK ALONE!

Chorus:
SAVE ME! From the hell I dug beneath my feet SAVE ME!
'Cause the victory is bitter-sweet I'm out of heroes
I'm out of fight Won't you reach down and pull me into the light?
This ain't a cry for fame, no, this ain't a cry for gold
It's just the whisper of a desperate soul
JESUS, SAVE ME!
Take this shattered heart and make it whole!


Bridge:
I don't deserve the love You offer me
I threw away the promise of eternity
But Your hands are open, Your cross is still the sign
Of a love that leaves no wandering soul behind
Now the walls come down...
I SURRENDER NOW!

Chorus:
SAVE ME! From the hell I dug beneath my feet SAVE ME!
'Cause the victory is bitter-sweet I'm out of heroes
I'm out of fight Won't you reach down and pull me into the light?
This ain't a cry for fame, no, this ain't a cry for gold
It's just the whisper of a desperate soul
JESUS, SAVE ME!
Take this shattered heart and make it whole!

Outro:
SAVE ME!
TAKE MY HEART!
JESUS... SAVE ME!
