Save Me from Myself
Lovelorn Dolls Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are the sweetest nightmare I've been waiting for
You are the only desire I will sacrifice
You kill this life, you kill this love
For me tonight
You leave this life, you leave it
Forever this time
Save me from your love
It burns my heart, it radiates

I don't want to fall
Even if it means to deceive me
Save me from myself
Can there be any other way to please me
I don't want to die
And leave this place, leave this place
You are the final kingdom I would travel to
You are so emotional I can make you cry
You kill this life, you kill this love
For me tonight

You leave this life, you leave it
Forever this time
