Save Me Now
Zanister Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Save Me Now
Anger the Angels, humour the devils.
Fool the gods, it's hard to do.
Save the saints, turn the other cheek
Praise the forgiven, expose the truth

Save me now, Take me home
Save me now, Take me home

Forget the past, it's an illusion.
Look at today, it's all for you.
Call out for justice, in a world gone mad.
Seek forth the sinner, learn something new.

Save me now, Take me home
Save me now, Take me home

Pray for the pope, he's lost his way.
Telling forth the masses, it's time to renew.
It's all a fallacy, fairy tales gone wild.
The rich get richer, it's just for a few.

Save me now, Take me home
Save me now, Take me home

Deceitful preachers spew forth their hate
Send in your money that's how we judge your faith.
The blind followers raise their hands.
Reaching god like a mindless fool.

Save me now, Take me home
Save me now, Take me home

Don't tell me your laws, as holy as they are.
I lived by faith, not by broken rules.




Gather your thoughts so deep within.
Right versus wrong it's only you.

Overall Meaning

The song "Save Me Now" by Zanister speaks to the idea of seeking redemption and salvation in a world that can often feel confusing and contradictory. The opening lines reference the difficulty of navigating different belief systems; it seems impossible to simultaneously please both angels and devils or to fully understand the intentions of the gods. However, the chorus offers a plea for someone to save the singer and take them home, possibly to a spiritual realm beyond this earth.
