SAVIOR
♥Black Veil Brides♥ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never meant to be the one who kept you from the dark
But now I know my wounds are sown because of who you are
I will take this burden on and become the holy one
But remember I am human and I am bound to sing this song

So hear my voice
Reminds you not to bleed
I am here

Savior! will be there
When you are feeling alone
A savior for all that you do
So live freely without their harm

So here I write my lullaby
To all the lonely ones
Remember as you learn to try to be the one you love
So I can take this pen and teach you how to live
But what is left unsaid, the greatest gift I gave

So hear my voice
Reminds you not to bleed
I am here

Savior! will be there
When you are feeling alone
A savior for all that you do
So live freely without their harm

Savior! will be there
When you are feeling alone
A savior for all that you do
So you live freely without their harm

When I hear your cries
Praying for life
I will be there

When I hear your cries
Praying for life
I will be there

I will be there!




I will always be there!
I will be there!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Savior" by Black Veil Brides is about a person who takes the burden of being a savour upon himself/herself to save someone who is feeling alone and depressed. This person realizes that their own scars and wounds are a result of who the other person is and what they are going through. However, they vow to become the holy one, to be there for the other person no matter what. They recognize their own limitations as humans but continue singing this song as a reminder that they are there to save the other person from bleeding. The lyrics also encourage the other person to live freely without any harm from others, while reminding them that when they cry and pray for life, the savour will be there.


The song is ultimately about unconditional love and being there for someone who is going through a difficult time. By becoming the savour, the singer wants to teach the other person how to live, to love themselves and to try to be the one they love. This person wants to give the greatest gift of unsaid words, which is to be there and support the other person, and to remind them that they are not alone.
