Save Me Now

[Chorus]

Please, save me now

I'm never gonna leave this town

I'll hang around

'Til all the buildings crumble down

Stacking up my dreams inside

I watch another train go by

Can't find my ticket to ride

[Verse 1]

He was a good guy, bad lie, king of con artists

I think of those days with my heart in the harness

And you can presume that he was groomed to bloom

Assumed his doom and lacked in the cash to move

He was my broken Caddy Daddy, stranger danger savvy

Killed my innocent first love when it ended badly

Three years and the grand finale

He called me drunk one night from his bachelor party

Said, "I get married tomorrow. How are you doing?"

Said, "I'm packing my baggage because my dreams are pursuing"

He said, "I'm glad that you're happy. I'm starting a family

But maybe someday we could hook up in Miami"

[Chorus]

Please, save me now

I'm never gonna leave this town

I'll hang around

'Til all the buildings crumble down

Stacking up my dreams inside

I watch another train go by

Can't find my ticket to ride

[Verse 2]

Sometimes a wrong feels right, and damn, the shit's vicious

A minute there, I thought love was fictitious

Like he was the one, I thought my life was done

I dropped the gun, broke out and began to run

I had no friends to carry me, my family scaring me

I felt the call of the city was daring me

To let it all go and forget the face

They probably tuned in for my rise to fame

He could be polishing tractors, I'm X-ing my factors

He could've come with if he had the adapters

I wish that I could've saved him or made my amends

But I don't really need it, don't read it if you know how it ends

[Chorus]

Please, save me now

I'm never gonna leave this town

I'll hang around

'Til all the buildings crumble down

Stacking up my dreams inside

I watch another train go by

Can't find my ticket to ride

[Bridge]

When the train come 'round don't skip the tracks

Don't let nobody hold you back

Just ride, ride!

When the train come 'round don't skip the tracks

Don't let nobody hold you back

Just ride, ride!

[Chorus]

Please, save me now (save me)

I'm never gonna leave this town (I'm never gonna leave)

I'll hang around (I'll hang around)

'Til all the buildings crumble down

Stacking up my dreams inside

(Stacking up my dreams inside)

I watch another train go by (hey!)

Can't find my ticket to ride
