Save Me From Myself
Louis The Child NoMBe Big Gigantic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let me introduce you to the voices in my head
They misbehave with every chance they get
The pain is real, my laughter is pretend
So I light the matches ready to forget

Let's fuck up the fire
And things feel a bit brighter
But not quite how I like it
So I need to get higher

So won't you save me from myself right now?
'Cause you know I need your help right now, right now
So won't you save me from myself right now, right now?
'Cause I feel like someone else, somehow

Still there's 48 hours without rest
Burning sensation in my chest
Never would admit that I'm the best
'Cause I was raised to take the bitter with a twist

So let's fuck up the fire
And things feel a bit brighter
But not quite how I like it
So I get a bit higher

So won't you save me from myself right now, right now?
'Cause you know I need your help right now, right now
So won't you save me from myself right now, right now?
'Cause I feel like someone else, somehow, somehow

'Cause I miss myself, yeah, I miss myself
Have you seen me?
Yeah, I miss that man that I was back then
Have you seen him?
'Cause I miss myself, yeah, I miss myself
Have you seen me?
Yeah, I miss that man that I was back then
Have you seen him?

So won't you save me from myself right now?
'Cause you know I need your help right now, right now
Won't you save me from myself right now, right now?
'Cause I feel like someone else, somehow, somehow
