TO SAVE MYSELF

A CHILD IS WISER THAN US
LOVING MARRIED MEN
TRUTH IS OUR SUNDAY DRESS
WHEN THERE’S A LONG WORKING WEEK TO COME
I LONG FOR A SHELTER
SHELTER FROM THIS STORM
NOBODY CAN SEE
SEE THE SHAPE I’M IN

I’M SO WEAK
IT AIN’T NO USE TO PRAY
‘CAUSE NOTHING’S GONNA CHANGE
YOU KNOW I’M GUILTY
AND THAT’S MY CROSS TO BEAR
WHO’S GONNA SAVE ME FROM MYSELF?

TRYIN’ TO KEEP ME OFF THIS HOLE
I DUG WITH MY OWN HANDS
YOU SAY:”WHAT’S THE MATTER WITH YOU?
DON’T LOOK AT ME IN THAT WAY”
AND I THANK YOU
FOR BELIEVING WHAT I DON’T BELIEVE
AND I THANK YOU
FOR BEEING WHAT I’VE NEVER BEEN

THE ONLY ONE I AM BETRAYING YOU KNOW
THAT’S SURELY ME
I BROKE DOWN MY HEART INTO LITTLE PIECES
CAN YOU STILL FEEL THE BEAT?

THE ONLY ONE I AM BETRAYING YOU KNOW
THAT’S SURELY ME
I BROKE DOWN YOUR HEART INTO LITTLE PIECES
JUST TO SAVE MYSELF

A CHILD IS WISER THAN US
LOVING MARRIED MEN
TRUTH IS OUR SUNDAY DRESS
WHEN THERE’S A LONG WORKING WEEK TO COME
