Save Myself

I gave all my oxygen to people that could breatheI gave away my moneyAnd now we don't even speakI drove miles and milesBut would you do the same for me?Oh, honestly?Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry uponGave you constant shelterAnd a bed to keep you warmThey gave me the heartacheAnd in return I gave a songIt goes on and onLife can get you down soI just numb the way it feelsI drown it with a drinkAnd out-of-date prescription pillsAnd all the ones that love meThey just left me on the shelfNo farewellSo before I save someone elseI've got to save myselfI gave you all my energy and I took away your pain'Cause human beings areDestined to radiate or drainWhat line do we stand upon'Cause from here it looks the sameAnd only scars remainLife can get you down soI just numb the way it feelsI drown it with a drinkAnd out-of-date prescription pillsAnd all the ones that love meThey just left me on the shelfNo farewellSo before I save someone elseI've got to save myselfBut if don'tThen I'll go backTo where I'm rescuing a strangerJust because they needed saving just like thatOh, I'm here againBetween the devil and the dangerBut I guess it's just my natureMy dad was wrong'Cause I'm not like my mum'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a songBut it helpsSo before I save someone elseI've got to save myselfLife can get you down soI just numb the way it feelsI drown it with a drinkAnd out-of-date prescription pillsAnd all the ones that love meThey just left me on the shelfNo farewellSo before I save someone elseI've got to save myselfAnd before I blame someone elseI've got to save myselfAnd before I love someone elseI've got to love myself
