Save Yourself
Treat Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Born in a blue town raised on the rye
Working till sundown, livin' a lie
Searching a good time with nowhere in sight
Heartache to heartache still up for the fight

I remember the day when I first heard you say
I've been waiting so long to be loved
To have the world in my hands
Where the feeling commands
I'll help you pray, yeah

Save yourself
Your heart is burnin'
Save yourself
The wheels are turnin'
Save yourself
Your heart is burnin'
Save yourself

Life ain't that easy as it seems
When you get older you'll know what I mean
Some will surrender and the fountain may dry
But you will be stronger and reach for the sky

I remember the day when I first heard you say
I've been waiting so long to be loved
To have the world in my hands
Where the feeling commands
I'll help you pray, yeah, yeah!

Save yourself
Your heart is burnin'
Save yourself
The wheels are turnin'
Save yourself
Your heart is burnin'
Save yourself

Look out!

I remember the day when I first heard you say
I've been waiting so long to be loved
To have the world in my hands
Where the feeling commands
I will help you pray, yeah

Save yourself
Your heart is burnin'
Save yourself
The wheels are turnin'
Save yourself
Your heart is burnin'
Save yourself

Save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself




Save yourself
You better save yourself
