Savior

It kills me not to know this

But I've all but just forgotten

What the color of her eyes were

And her scars or how she got them

As the telling signs of age rain down

A single tear is dropping

Through the valleys of an aging face

That this world has forgotten

There is no reconciliation

That will put me in my place

And there is no time like the present

To drink these draining seconds

But seldom do these words ring true

When I'm constantly failing you

Walls that we just can't break through

Until we disappear

So, tell me now, if this ain't love

Then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know

That's when she said, "I don't hate you, boy, I just want to save you

While there's still something left to save!" (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh!)

That's when I told her, "I love you, girl, but I'm not the answer

For the questions that you still have!"

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh!

And the day pressed on like crushing weights

For no man does it ever wait

Like memories of dying days

That deafen us like hurricanes

Bathed in flames we held the brand

Uncurled the fingers in your hand

Pressed into the flesh like sand

Now do you understand?

So, tell me now, if this ain't love

Then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know

That's when she said, "I don't hate you, boy, I just want to save you

While there's still something left to save!" (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh!)

That's when I told her, "I love you, girl, but I'm not the answer

For the questions that you still have!"

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh!

One thousand miles away, there's nothing left to say

But so much left that I don't know

We never had a choice, this world is too much noise

It takes me under, it takes me under once again

I don't hate you

I don't hate you, no

So, tell me now, if this ain't love

Then how do we get out? 'Cause I don't know

That's when she said, "I don't hate you, boy, I just want to save you

While there's still something left to save!" (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh!)

That's when I told her, "I love you, girl, but I'm not the answer

For the questions that you still have!"

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh!

I don't hate you

I don't hate you (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh!)

I don't hate you

I don't hate you, no

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh!
