Save Yourself
Unveiling Heartache: Save Yourself from Love's Illusions
Lyrics
Imagine the surprise
Expressing the surprise
And the letdown
And the subsequent disappointment
Of falling in the arms of the undone
Of becoming involved with someone unstable
You probably didn't know what you walked into
Not realizing the situation you entered
Neither did I all those years ago
Reflecting on lack of awareness in the past
So take it from me honey
Advice to leave for own well-being
Get up now and leave
Encouraging departure despite personal growth
Although I´ve done the growing
Acknowledging personal progress, suggesting incompatibility
You shouldn´t be with me
Warning against being in a relationship with the singer
You think that you can handle it
Belief in handling the situation
And although you might do
Recognition of capability
I dont know if I'll ever be
Uncertainty about being adequate for the partner
Enough for you
Questioning self-worth in the relationship
Save yourself
Pleading for partner's self-preservation
Save yourself
Reiterating the plea for self-protection
For me now
Requesting partner to save themselves
I can´t help
Feeling inadequate to assist partner
Feeling like I'll never be enough for you
Expressing self-doubt about satisfying partner's needs
First impression's easy
Initial impression being straightforward
It's what comes next
Highlighting subsequent complexities
I've made you fall in love
Admitting to causing affection for another
With someone else
Realizing unintended emotional attachment
When you discover what I've done
Expecting partner's rejection upon revelation
You'd probably just go up and run anyway
Anticipating partner fleeing from the truth
But definitely stay
Desire for partner to stay despite circumstances
Is what I wanna say
Expressing the wish for the partner's presence
Cause you're the best part
Acknowledging partner's significance
Of any given day
Recognizing partner as a source of joy
And if I could man up
Expressing desire to confront responsibilities
If I could just take a break
Wishing for a momentary relief or respite
That's what I would say
Expression of limitations in handling the situation
But all I can manage at this point is
Admitting the incapacity to do more at present
Save yourself
Repeated plea for partner's self-preservation
Save yourself
Reiteration of the plea for self-protection
For me now
Requesting partner to save themselves
I can´t help
Feeling inadequate to assist partner
Feeling like I'll never be enough for you
Reiterating self-doubt about satisfying partner's needs
