"Save You" lyrics

Mom says you haven't called her
And last time that she saw ya
It brought her to tears
You're no good at faking
Late night, self-medicating
For weeks you disappear

My heart, it sinks every time the phone rings
And I see the worst in my head
And God only knows all the pain that you hold
I wish I could take it instead

If you were falling then I'd grow wings
If you were drowning, I'd tear apart the sea
If you were a sinner, then I'd freeze hell
But I can't save you
No, I can't save you from yourself

Save you, save you
Save you, save you from yourself

It broke my heart to pieces
The night your car broke down
And you thought you couldn't call, hmm-mm
You cried in the front seat
Feeling helpless, I feel guilty
Like it somehow is my fault

And my heart, it sinks every time that I think
Of you riding so close to the edge
And God only knows all the pain that you hold
I wish I could take it instead

If you were falling then I'd grow wings
If you were drowning, I'd tear apart the sea
If you were a sinner, I'd freeze hell
But I can't save you
No, I can't save you from yourself

Save you, save you
Save you, save you from yourself

Save you (If I could)
Save you (You know I would)
Save you, save you from yourself
(Wish I could save you from yourself)
Save you (If I could)
Save you (You know I would)
Save you, save you from yourself
(Then I could save you from yourself)
Save you, save you
Save you, save you from—
(I wish I could save you from yourself)
