SAVIOR
Echoes from Airplanes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A beautiful world
So close I came to the dark side
To be rescued by you
It's dawn now, the suns coming home
To heat my bones and clear my head
I'm littered, scattered and jitters
I'm the best I've ever been
It's overrated, all we do
It's overrated, all we do
I owe you
I love you
And I trust you, that you'll love me too
Your rescue, my refuge
Your rescue, my refuge
I owe you
I love you
I trust you
That you'll love me too

The use of the word "rescued" suggests that the singer was in a dangerous place before this person intervened. The line "It's dawn now, the sun's coming home" signifies a new beginning and a sense of hope. The sun brings light and warmth, which can also be interpreted as a metaphor for the person who saved the singer bringing light and warmth into their life.

They now realize that their relationship is what truly matters.

little girl: what’s on your arm?
me: they’re battle scars.
little girl: you fought in a war?
me: yeah. a long and hard one.
little girl: that’s so cool! can i get one?
me: no. please do not ever get any. but i’ll tell you what. whenever you see someone else with battle scars, i want you to hug them. okay? can you promise me?
little girl: yes. i promise.
a few days later we went on a short shopping spree. suddenly the little girl let go of my hand and ran up to another random teenager
teen: why are you hugging me?
little girl: because.. (*points*) you have battle scars just like my babysitter.
the teen looked up at me, and i rolled up my sleeves to show her. with tears in her eyes, she said one thing to me..
teen: my war is far from being finished right now, but i am not done fighting.
she bends down at eye level with the little girl
teen: thanks for giving me the strength to keep . you are forever my war hero.
⚠️ this is not my story, but i saw it somewhere else and decided to share it too because i want you to do the same to anyone with “battle scars” ⚠️
I need everyone to pass this on.

The real lyrics : I'm sorry but your story isn't adding up
Think your religion is a lie to keep my mouth shut
So I won't testify the crimes you're keeping score of
Why don't you throw me to the wolves? I thought you were one
You were standing there like an angry god
Counting out my sins just to cross them off
Saying that my tongue was too loud to trust
And that my blood couldn't keep you
My dear, you're not so innocent
You're fooling Heaven's gates
So you won't have to change
You're no saint, you're no savior
Your revelations don't look nothing like the pictures
You read between the lines and don't stick to the scriptures
You only follow rules if others follow with you
That doesn't sound so holy only playing victim
You were standing there like an angry god
Counting out my sins just to cross them off
Saying that my tongue was too loud to trust
And that my blood couldn't keep you
My dear, you're not so innocent
You're fooling Heaven's gates
So you won't have to change
You're no saint, you're no savior
So keep your judgment for someone else, I've had enough
And keep your judgment for someone else, I've had enough
So keep your judgment for someone else, I've had enough
And keep your judgment for someone else, I've had enough
My dear, you're not so innocent
You're fooling Heaven's gates
So you won't have to change
You're no saint, you're no savior
