Save Yourself
Rescuing Hearts: Suzy Bogguss Inspires Independence in 'Save Yourself'
Lyrics
You're gonna have to save yourself this time darlin'
You must take responsibility for your own salvation this time, my dear.
You're gonna have to find a soft heart in someone else
You need to seek support and compassion from someone else with a softer heart.
'Cause I almost drowned comin' to your rescue
I faced significant challenges while trying to rescue you, almost losing myself.
This time around,you're gonna have to save yourself
In this instance, it's on you to rescue yourself.
I'm all out of rope and I'm all out of reasons
I've exhausted all my resources and justifications.
You had me thinkin' I could help
You led me to believe I could assist you.
That you needed a friend
I thought you needed a friend.
One little white lie and it all looks deceiving'
A small falsehood has clouded the situation, making it appear misleading.
You keep goin' back out over your head again
You persistently place yourself in challenging situations.
You're gonna have to save yourself this time darlin'
Once again, the responsibility falls on you to save yourself.
You're gonna have to find a soft heart in someone else
Seek comfort and understanding from someone else with a kinder heart.
'Cause I almost drowned comin' to your rescue
I faced significant challenges while trying to rescue you, almost losing myself (repeated).
This time around,you're gonna have to save yourself
In this instance, it's on you to rescue yourself (repeated).
You can knock on the door
You can attempt to seek entrance.
You can rattle all the windows
You can make noise and create a disturbance.
You can howl like a dog but you're not comin' in
Despite your efforts, you won't be allowed in.
I'm anybody's fool til I learn how the game goes
I played the fool until I understood the rules of the game.
And I will never be you're fool again
I won't be deceived and made a fool of by you again.
You're gonna have to save yourself this time darlin'
Once again, the responsibility falls on you to save yourself (repeated).
You're gonna have to find a soft heart in someone else
Seek support and compassion from someone else with a kinder heart (repeated).
'Cause I almost drowned comin' to your rescue
I faced significant challenges while trying to rescue you, almost losing myself (repeated).
This time around,you're gonna have to save yourself
In this instance, it's on you to rescue yourself (repeated).
