Save Myself Songtext
von Light Bird

Do you only say the things you mean
Cause meaning easily gets lost with feeling′
And I can recall the days I doubted I would be around
To breath in my 34th year

I tried to read the holy bible
Couldn't make it past Cain and Able
I wanna be that kind of person who will always be there
But I guess I′ll have to find a way to forgive myself


I can swear that I try
To hold on to my own light
For all I lack and fail to right
I will face my vice
I will save my own life

I spoke through our whole first session
Until she asked me 'bout self compassion
I'm not so sure I′ve ever shown up for my own self
Least of all when I really needed me the most

Sometimes in the small of the evening
I′ll find something I can believe in
And in those moments I feel certain I could turn out something great
But those moments always seem to want to fade away


I can swear that I try
To hold on to my own light
For all I lack and fail to right
I will face my vice
I will save my own life
