Someone To Save You
OneRepublic (www.MegaMusic.uz) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Patience
Took you for everything
Looked like a diamond ring
You are so much longer
That made sense
Apathy in disguise
Crept on you like a spy
Hurt you in ways
You can't describe

Back to the start now
I wont let you go this way now

Honesty
Is what you need
It sets you free
Like someone to save you
Let it go
But hurry now
Theres undertow
And I don't want to lose you now

All right
Sit down and spill your heart

Lets start from the very start
'Cause I can see by your eyes
You're wasted
Your energy comes and goes
You taking your time, you know
Nothing can change what happened, and so

Back to the start now
I wont let you go this way now

Honesty
Is what you need
It sets you free
Like someone to save you
Let it go
But hurry now
Theres undertow
And I don't want to lose you now

Now
Now
Oh my
Look at your bright stars fade so
How much can you take?

Honesty
Is what you need
It sets you free
Like someone to save you
Let it go
But hurry now
Theres undertow
And I don't want to lose you now

Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na

I said to save you
Save you
Save you
Someone to save you




What you need is
Someone to save you

Overall Meaning

The song "Someone to Save You" by OneRepublic is an emotional ballad about rescuing someone from their pain and suffering. The first verse speaks to the idea of patience, how the singer took someone for everything, thinking they were a diamond ring. However, it becomes clear that the person they were counting on is hurting, and the singer is there to pick them up. The second verse speaks more plainly to the need for honesty and how it can set someone free. The chorus is a powerful call to action, urging the person to let go and hurry to safety, as there is an undertow that could cost them everything. The bridge goes deeper, asking the person to spill their heart and come back to the start, to a place where they are free from pain, and the song ends on the note of the singer hoping to save the other person.
