[Intro — spoken + melodic hums]
(Soft, almost whispered — like a voice memo intro)
Yeah…
(You ever meet somebody who broken the same way you are?)
Heh… (yeah)
That’s how it started… (mmm…)
(“oh-oh, yeah-yeah…”)
Met her in the city where the lost souls talk (talk)
Late night lights and her cigarette cough (cough)
I ain’t tryna fall in love — not at all (nah)
But her eyes said “stay,” and I couldn’t walk off (couldn’t walk off)
(“Yeah… I couldn’t walk off…”)
Verse 1]
She said, “you ever feel like the world don’t need you?” (need you, yeah)
I said, “every damn day, I just don’t let it bleed through.” (bleed through)
We shared a smoke in the dark, sky was see-through (sky so clear)
Told her, “I’m numb too, but I can’t ever leave you.” (can’t leave you, nah)
Scars on her wrist, dreams up her sleeve (dreams up her sleeve)
She said, “I don’t want help, I just want peace.” (just peace)
We both laughed like it’s fine, but I could see, (could see)
That her pain was a mirror lookin’ right back at me. (right back at me, yeah)
(“Lookin’ right back at me… me… me…”)
[Hook]
She talk about self-harm as she cough from the loud (from the loud, yeah)
I lie and say I can’t relate, but I hide all these drugs around (hide ‘em all, yeah)
I take them when I’m feeling down (when I’m down)
But you grab my wrist saying “don’t take that much ‘cause I’ll be alone in my gown” (alone in my gown…)
I guess you’ll save me for now (for now… yeah…)
(“Save me… save me for now…”)
[Verse 2]
Next week she called from the back of a car (skrrt)
Said, “I don’t know where I am, but it’s not that far.” (nah)
I pulled up fast — she was lost in the stars (stars)
Eyes rolled back, clutchin’ pills in a jar (in a jar, yeah)
We sat on the curb, didn’t say too much (nah)
Just silence and a shaking touch (touch)
She said, “I can’t feel love, I can only feel lust,” (feel lust)
I said, “that’s fine, I don’t feel much.” (don’t feel much, yeah)
Watched the sunrise, both half-dead (half-dead)
Her head on my lap, tears she never shed (never shed)
I realized then what she really meant (what she meant)
We don’t want life, we just want a moment that makes sense (makes sense)
(“Makes sense… just a moment, yeah…”)
[Hook ]
She talk about self-harm as she cough from the loud (from the loud, yeah)
I lie and say I can’t relate, but I hide all these drugs around (hide ‘em all, yeah)
I take them when I’m feeling down (when I’m down)
But you grab my wrist saying “don’t take that much ‘cause I’ll be alone in my gown” (alone in my gown…)
I guess you’ll save me for now (for now… save me for now…)
(“Save me… save me… save me for now…”)
(Beat fades, with reversed guitar melody + humming outro: “mmm… save me for now…”)
