Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Skillet's song "Savior" explore the idea of surrendering oneself to a higher power or force for protection and guidance in a tumultuous existence. The song implies that the singer is the "Savior" in question, someone who is able to see into the depths of an individual's psyche and provide them with the reassurance they need to move forward. The repeated refrain of "What you got, what you want, what you need, gonna be your savior" can be interpreted as a mantra encouraging the listener to let go of their insecurities and trust in the singer's ability to protect them from the chaos of the world.


The metaphors in the lyrics can be seen in lines such as "I am the eyes inside of you, stare back at you" and "don't hesitate, no escape from secrets on the inside," which suggest a sense of intimacy and closeness between the singer and the listener. The idea of a "deophobic mind" also reinforces the notion of an individual's internal struggles being a source of their anxiety and insecurity.


Overall, the song "Savior" is a call to surrender oneself to something greater in order to find peace and stability in a world full of uncertainty and chaos.

Lyrics:

Target on my back lone survivor lasts
They got me in their sights
No surrender no
Trigger fingers go
Living the dangerous life

Hey, hey, hey everyday when I wake
I'm trying to get up, they're knocking me down
Chewing me up, spitting me out
Hey, hey, hey when I need to be saved
You're making me strong, you're making me stand
Never will fall, never will end
Shot like a rocket up into the sky
Nothing could stop me tonight

You make me feel invincible
Earthquake, powerful
Just like a tidal wave
You make me brave
You're my titanium
Fight song, raising up
Like a roar of victory in a stadium
Who can touch me 'cause I'm (I'm made of fire)
Who can stop me tonight (I'm hard wired)
You make me feel invincible

I feel, I feel it
Invincible
I feel, I feel it
Invincible

Here we go againi will not give in
I've got a reason to fight
Every day we choose
We might win or lose
This is the dangerous life

Hey, hey, hey everyday when I wake
They say that I'm gone; they say that they've won
The bell has been rung, it's over and done
Hey, hey, hey when I need to be saved
They counting me out, but this is my round
(You in my corner look at me now)
Shot like a rocket up into the sky
Nothing could stop me tonight

You make me feel invincible
Earthquake, powerful
Just like a tidal wave
You make me brave
You're my titanium
Fight song, raising up
Like a roar of victory in a stadium
Who can touch me 'cause I'm (I'm made of fire)
Who can stop me tonight (I'm hard wired)
You make me feel invincible

I feel, I feel it
Invincible
I feel, I feel it
Invincible

You make me feel invincible
You make me feel invincible
Shot like a rocket up into the sky
Not gonna stop, invincible

You make me feel invincible
Earthquake, powerful
Just like a tidal wave
You make me brave
You're my titanium
Fight song, raising up
Like a roar of victory in a stadium

You make me feel invincible
Earthquake, powerful
Just like a tidal wave
You make me brave
You're my titanium
Fight song, raising up
Like a roar of victory in a stadium
Who can touch me 'cause I'm (I'm made of fire)
Who can stop me tonight (I'm hard wired)
You make me feel invincible

I feel, I feel it
Invincible
I feel, I feel it
Invincible
