"I can’t save you from yourself."

By: SCARLET

You’d rather drown yourself in drink than make yourself sit down and think.
You’d rather lie in bed all day and keep those demons well at bay.
Oh, you mess things up. Oh, you’re dangerous. And I’ve tried to see you through it all and I don’t wanna watch you fall.

But I can’t save you from yourself. I’d kill myself if it would help.
I’ve had enough of wasting time. I’ve got to let you know that I love you like no one else.
But I can’t save you from yourself. I can’t save you from yourself.

You’d rather go hurt someone else than run the risk they’d hurt you first.
You’d rather go for second place than go for first and lose the race.
Oh, you screw things up. Oh, you’re dangerous. And I’ve tried to see you through it all and I don’t wanna watch you fall.

But I can’t save you from yourself. I’d kill myself if it would help.
I’ve had enough of wasting time. I’ve got to let you know that I love you like no one else.
But I can’t save you from yourself. I can’t save you from yourself.

You’d rather I was not your friend for fear I’d leave you in the end.
I know you’d like to change your ways and sure as hell if you don’t, you’ll pay.
Oh why do you fuck things up? Oh you’re dangerous.

But I can’t save you from yourself. I’d kill myself if it would help.
I’ve had enough of wasting time. I’ve got to let you know that I love you like no one else.
But I can’t save you from yourself. I can’t save you from yourself.
