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!

"Saviour II"

I never knew how to live alone
Holding my fear in the unknown
And if we only speak in tongues how can we be heard?
Are there songs you keep to guard your heart?
Let this be the one you use to start your own
And every word that came from you has carried me

So I'm trying my hardest to be what you made, like a court jester my smile won't fade
Giving it all, rising to fall to my grave
Answer the call, living in thrall
You're the one born to save

I grew this heart in a motor car
I wear a mask to be the star
All of the heat and anxiety that still lines the road
It is all I ever thought I'd live for, now I know I'm more than all of my scars

So I'm trying my hardest to be what you made, like a court jester my smile won't fade
Giving it all, rising to fall to my grave
Answer the call, living in thrall
You are the one born to save

So I'm trying my hardest to be what you made, like a court jester my smile won't fade
Giving it all, rising to fall to my grave
Answer the call, living in thrall
You are the one born-

So I'm trying my hardest to be what you made, like a court jester my smile won't fade
Giving it all, rising to fall to my grave
Answer the call, living in thrall
You are the one born to save



@momozaku2007

Goddamn I'm literally almost crying

When I first listening to saviour I cried, this is literally the same feeling

I was gonna also maybe play saviour at one of our school concerts, maybe this part of it too
If the teacher says yes

This is literally so beautiful, so great
I love this band so much your songs helped me so much, that's why you are my saviours

Listen to the original BVB Savior, it’s originally acoustic. Doesn’t seem all that different if they have acoustic and violins in this track too since it’s a part 2 ;-;
