Savior
Rise Against Lyrics

It kills me not to know this, but I've all but just forgotten
I am filled with regret and sadness for not remembering the details of a person I once loved deeply.

What the color of her eyes were, and her scars or how she got them
I cannot recall the physical details of the person I once loved, including the color of their eyes and the story behind their scars.

As the telling signs of age rain down, a single tear is dropping
I am growing older and feeling the weight of my mortality, experiencing a moment of grief that is bringing tears to my eyes.

Through the valleys of an aging face, that this world has forgotten
I feel isolated and alone in a world that does not care about the aging and forgotten, particularly those who have lost someone they love.

There is no reconciliation that will put me in my place
I do not believe that there is any way to make things right or fill the void left by the loss of my loved one.

And there is no time like the present, to drink these draining seconds
I am trying to savor each moment and make the most of my time, as I recognize that life is fleeting and precious.

But seldom do these words ring true, when I'm constantly failing you
Despite my efforts to stay positive, I often feel like I am not doing enough or failing to live up to the expectations of those around me.

Walls that we just can't break through, until we disappear
There are barriers between us that seem insurmountable, and it feels like the only way to break them down is to simply cease to exist.

If this ain't love then how do we get out?
I am questioning my own understanding of love and whether or not it is healthy or worth pursuing in the face of so much pain and loss.

'Cause I don't know
Despite my experience and knowledge, I am still struggling to find answers or make sense of my emotions and experiences.

That's when she said I don't hate you boy
Another person is trying to reach out to me and offer support and comfort, despite my feelings of isolation and hopelessness.

I just want to save you, while there's still something left to save
This person cares about me and wants to help me find hope and healing before it is too late.

That's when I told her I love you girl
I am expressing my own feelings of love and appreciation for the person who is offering me support and understanding.

But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have, whoa, whoa
Despite my own love and support, I cannot solve all of the other person's problems or answer all of their questions and concerns.

There's nothing left to say
Despite our distance and separation, we have already said everything that needs to be said.

But so much left that I don't know
Despite our past communication, there is still so much that I do not understand or know about the other person or the situation we are both in.

We never had a choice
Some of the circumstances in our lives were beyond our control, and we never had the option to change or avoid them.

This world is too much noise
The chaos and noise of the world is overwhelming and distracting, making it difficult to focus on the things that really matter in life.

It takes me under
The stress and pressure of the world is causing me to feel overwhelmed and suffocated.

I don't hate you
Despite our struggles and differences, I still care about and appreciate the other person.

I don't hate you, no
I am trying to reassure the other person of my true feelings and intentions, even in the face of adversity.
