Savin Me

Prison gates won’t open up for me
On these hands and knees I’m crawlin’
Oh, I reach for you
Well I’m terrified of these four walls
These iron bars can’t hold my soul in

All I need is you
Come please I’m callin’
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I’m fallin’

Show me what it’s like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I’ll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me

And I’ll leave this life behind me
Say it if it’s worth saving me

Heaven’s gates won’t open up for me
With these broken wings I’m fallin’
And all I see is you
These city walls ain’t got no love for me
I’m on the ledge of the eighteenth story
And oh I scream for you
Come please I’m callin’
And all I need from you
Hurry I’m fallin’

Sometimes a song can just say everything you don't have the words to say in moments of despair. This song is that for me. It says what I have so many times wanted to say. I desire to learn how to live right. I fall every day; And I cry out to the only one that I know can teach me. To put this daily struggle, this life behind me and live different. One of my close friends told me they looked up this song and found out Nickelback wrote it about redemption. Redemption is something I need, something I want, and that's why I look to this song in many ways as an expression of that desire I have to need God in my life every moment of every day. Everytime I walk away it hurts.
