. . . Save Him . . . Says the girl I used to be
. . . Save him . . . Whispers the brokenness inside of me
. . . Save Him . . . Echos on every breath I exhale
. . . Save Him . . . Scream the birds flying over my head
. . . Save Him . . . Weave the spiders into their webs
"He's not mine to save" I repeat with each step I take
"He doesn't belong to me" I declare to the sun every day break
"Save me from this temptation" I pray each night
"I can't love him" I cry when it's too much to fight
. . . Save him . . . Commands the universe as it pushes me toward the edge
I just hope I can catch myself as I fall off the ledge
