Inspired by Cartel's Save Us


Can you save us?

Don't' just gawk at me

I once knew you

I mean, I thought I did

The way you look at me

I mean the way you glare

I can't keep doing this

You really should know

It's bad enough what we mean

What we represent isn't exactly whole

I mean, to be pushed onto the brink

Of self and worldly destruction

Just say the word

Say you'll try

If you can't,

Who can save us

I can't keep doing this

I can't keep waking up to this hollow life

A shell of what I could be

A piece of what I am

You were the one person

I could always rely on

I thought you wouldn't

Take my betrayal at face value

But you just stare at me

Just look at me as if I have a choice

Can you save us?

Can you rescue us?

I feel like a damn damsel in distress

For asking you, but who else?

Who will save us?

Can you save us?

Can you save me?
