Rescue Me
In Palms Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
When I can't find myself
Would you give me time
To ride on?
Would it be alright
If I just laid my head?
I just need some time
Oh, my soul
You want the answers
I don't know why
You want me in
Oh, my child
I want to forgive and forget
But by my side
Is where the power lies
Can you give me time
Just to ride on?
When the full moon strikes
I will fight on
Would you share your shoulder
To cry on?
Would you rescue me?
Can you give me space
I can vibe off?
Can you be my devil
To try on?
Would you give your life
For survival?
Would you rescue me?
In the dead of night
When I am bound to find
All my weaknesses in paradise
So I'm pushing on
And it's really for real this time
You can mark your trees
Or pay the price, hey
Oh, my child
I want to forgive and forget
But by my side
Is where the power lies
Can you give me time
Just to ride on?
When the full moon strikes
I will fight on
Can you share your shoulder
To cry on?
Will you rescue me?
Can you give me space
I can vibe off?
Can you be my devil
To try on?
Would you give your life
For survival?
Would you rescue me?
In a minute
I won't be right beside you
In a minute
I won't be right beside
Can you give me time
Just to ride on?
When the full moon strikes
I will fight on
Will you share your shoulder
To cry on?
Could you rescue me?
Can you give me space
I can vibe off?
Can you be my devil
To try on?
Would you give your life
For survival?
Would you rescue me?
