"Save Me" lyrics

Did a reckless call decide that you were leaving?
Traded all you'd left behind for other skies
To where the rain offers mercy
Grants the faithful a disguise
If ever tears should wash away a paper smile
When the battle was through and done
Decreed by judgement of the sun
Had you lost more than all that you can say you'd won

Did you ask or ever wonder if I'd been on your side
Or followed every step you took along the way?
Guarded your secrets and never told
Wove the tales to which we'd hold
Myths we tell ourselves in order to survive
When to your eyes the worlds a stranger
Without courage and full of anger
Like castles on the sand before the tide

Was it fortune holding sway when you walked away?
Laid the king down on his side when you resigned
A ring of metal for a crown
Adorned with stones to weigh it down
Rags for robes to cover up your foolish side
For chance exchanged your pain and loss
And wagered all on love and trust
Because fate alone's not written in the stars

Save me
You always save me
When you're strong enough to heal a fragile heart
And if you save me, even pray for me
Fill my heart and mind to remind me who I am
We've yet so many worlds to conquer
So many roads for us to wander
I will write our names in a heaven full of stars

Save me
You always save me
When you're strong enough to heal a fragile heart
And if you save me, even pray for me
Fill my heart and mind to remind me who I am
We've yet so many worlds to conquer
So many roads for us to wander
I will write our names in a heaven full of stars
