Save Me Lyrics

It's been a long year
nobody found me
nobody wound me up

it's been a long time since I really laughed
I guess you had to be there
it wasn't funny when all the money dried
and fell like leaves on the breeze of a fallen pride
a slippery slide of little lies

somebody ought to put me down
somebody who can come around
and help me dig myself an early grave
why don't you save me?
save me
why don't you save me from myself?

I'm in a bad way
I didn't notice until I focused in
and saw the fine print in a cold sweat of a slow gin
fizz
and there it is I tried to change my ways
but like a safety pin, I just get stuck again
I need a thicker skin, I need to take it on the chin
and grin
and then I wonder when

somebody's gonna come around
somebody who can sit me down
and fool me into thinking I'm okay
why don't you save me?
save me
why don't you save me from myself?

somebody ought to come around
somebody who can sit me down
and fool me into thinking I'm okay
why don't you save me?
save me
why don't you save me from myself?

it's been a long year
nobody found me
nobody wound me up
