Rescue Me
YT Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She was gone and I couldn't take it
I was looking for a new way of thinkin'
When I go to sleep, I pray I wouldn't wake up
Well, I want you, I want you to rescue me
The wheel kept turning, but I stood still
Did I play to win or did I win to loose
Of all the cards I had to draw the fool
All people tellin' me about things I do
The more I hear, the less I see the truth
Oh, well, I'm on the edge, I can't look down
Oh, slippin', slippin', slippin' oh, help
I want you to rescue me, oh, rescue me
Oh, you know I want you
I want you to rescue me, oh, rescue me
A voice faintly callin' from another time
Oh so strange, it sounds like mine
Shades of black and a twisted road
And I can't see the sky from here
Oh, do I turn around? I go straight ahead
I can't stop now, I find the light somewhere
Oh, well, I'm on the edge, I can't look down
Oh, slippin', slippin', slippin', oh, help
I want you to rescue me, oh, rescue me
You know I want you
I want you to rescue me, oh, rescue me
I want you, I want you to rescue me, oh, rescue me
Oh, you know I want you
I want you to rescue me, oh, rescue me
Oh, you know I want you
I want you to rescue me
Oh, rescue me
Oh, rescue me, oh, rescue me

I was down, I was barely makin' it
I was struggling emotionally and financially
She was gone and I couldn't take it
The lack of a significant other was too much for me
I was looking for a new way of thinkin'
I needed a fresh perspective on life
When I go to sleep, I pray I wouldn't wake up
My life seemed so hopeless that death seemed like a better alternative
Well, I want you, I want you to rescue me
I desperately need help from someone
The wheel kept turning, but I stood still
Time kept moving on, but I was stuck in the same spot
As the shadow looking for the man
I was lost and searching for direction
Did I play to win or did I win to loose
I wasn't sure if I was making productive decisions
Of all the cards I had to draw the fool
I felt like I was constantly making foolish choices
All people tellin' me about things I do
People were criticizing my actions and pointing out my flaws
The more I hear, the less I see the truth
The more criticism I received, the more confused I became
Oh, well, I'm on the edge, I can't look down
I was in a precarious mental state and couldn't handle more stress
Oh, slippin', slippin', slippin' oh, help
I felt like I was losing control and desperately needed assistance
A voice faintly callin' from another time
I was hearing echoes of my past experiences
Oh so strange, it sounds like mine
The past experiences seemed foreign to me, but I recognized them
Shades of black and a twisted road
My life felt dark and complicated
And I can't see the sky from here
I felt trapped and unable to see the brighter side of things
Oh, do I turn around? I go straight ahead
I was unsure of what direction to take in my life
I can't stop now, I find the light somewhere
Despite feeling lost, I knew that I had to keep moving forward and find a solution
I want you, I want you to rescue me, oh, rescue me
I needed someone to save me from my problems
Oh, you know I want you
I was desperate, and the person I was speaking to was the only one I thought could help
Oh, rescue me
I needed to be saved

Those of us who grew up in the 80's are getting old, but damn it, we had the best music. Saw these guys at the Concord Pavilion (CA) in the mid-80's. Everyone was stoned and cool, no bombs or mass shootings or crazy shit. Those were great times.
@user-uk1vx7wy5g
yes we did
@Metamorpho67
Saw Y & T about half a dozen times in the 80’s at Sherwood Hall in Salinas, Ca. Always a great time. Stellar band Leonard Haze was a close second to Bonham on the drums. 🤙🏽
@petersze7127
Man, im 52..and i remember seeing them at Keystone Berkeley, when they were called "yesterday and today"..
@1BradLangston
Unless you've seen these guys live you have no idea how good they are. Dave gave me shots from his wild turkey bottle. The whole band are great unassuming guys. I told Dave I was a fan from the yesterday and today era and he handed me his bottle. Damn, never forget it
