Can’t Save it All

Verse 1
I was sleeping in the tower
Calling silence “faith”
Counting every footstep
Praying you’d find your way
I wore hope like armor
Even when it cut
Told myself the waiting
Was proof of being loved

Chorus 
Look what I did for you
Just to make you stay
Look what I do to me
I’m slowly fading away
I did it all for you
Every single piece
I was so damn in love with you
It brought me to my knees
Took me to surrender
Took you to never even fall
But I’m getting older now
And love can’t save it all
It can’t save it all

Verse 2 
You came riding in at sunrise
Like every tale I knew
I thought the war was over
Just ’cause I was safe with you
You came riding in at sunrise
I believed we’d finally won
Didn’t know that being saved
Ain’t the same as being loved

Chorus 
Look what I did for you
Just to make you stay
Look what I do to me
I’m slowly fading away
I did it all for you
Every single piece
I was so damn in love with you
It brought me to my knees
Took me to surrender
Took you to never even fall
But I’m getting older now
And love can’t save it all
It can’t save it all

Bridge 
You held me like a promise
But your eyes were somewhere else
I learned a knight can save you
Without ever choosing you for himself

Chorus 
Look what I did for you
Just to make you stay
Look what I do to me
I’m slowly fading away
I did it all for you
Every single piece
I was so damn in love with you
It brought me to my knees
Took me to surrender
Took you to never even fall
But I’m getting older now
And love can’t save it all
It can’t save it all
