Save Yourself
Morrison James Lyrics

Morrison James's song "Save Yourself" is about personal growth and the realization that sometimes the best thing for you and the people you care about is to let them go. The singer is trying to change and make things work for the relationship, "I'm trying to change, to make the best for us" but acknowledges that he is still the same person as before, "But I'm just the same, same as I ever was". He realizes that if his partner stays with him, he will end up hurting her more, and encourages her to leave for her own sake, "So won't you save, save yourself, by leaving me now for someone else". The chorus repeats the plea to leave him, despite his emotional outbursts, because it is what's best for her.

Throughout the song, the singer struggles with his emotions and feels torn between his love for his partner and the knowledge that they would be better off apart. He recognizes the intensity of the situation and how it can lead to confusion and pain, "This feels so intense, sometimes it can lead you back". He also acknowledges his own weakness in letting go, "And I don't think I'm that strong, to say goodbye, I don't wanna see you cry".

The message of "Save Yourself" is that sometimes love is not enough and that personal growth and change are necessary for a relationship to work. It also highlights the importance of considering the well-being of others and making difficult decisions for their sake.
