[Verse 1]
I trusted a priest
I fell to his feet
And he raised me up there
Then cut me off at the knees
I trusted the law
They didn’t help me at all
I wound up black, blue, screwed
In the back of his car
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna wake up alone
I need you to hear me now
I don't wanna do it alone
I need you here with me now
[Chorus]
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
They got me and I'll never give up
But I need you to save me now
Well, they feed upon the poor
My head is banging on the floor
Yes it's over, yes it's over
They're lying
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
Save me now
[Verse 2]
I once had a girl
I gave her my world
But she played around, put me down
Still wanted the pearl
So I went to a priest
Yes, I fell to his feet
And he just raised me up
To cut me off at the knees
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna wake up alone
I need you to hear me now
I don't wanna do it alone
I need you here with me now
[Chorus]
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
They got me and I'll never give up
But I need you to save me now
'cause the priest and the law
Truth is pounding at the door
Yes it’s over, yes it’s over
They’re dying
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
Save me now
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna wake up alone
I need you to hear me now
I don’t wanna do it alone
I need you here with me now
[Chorus]
I don’t wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
They got me and I'll never give up
But I need you to save me now
Well, they feed upon the poor
My head is banging on the floor
Yes it's over, yes it's over
They're lying
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
Save me now
I trusted a priest
I fell to his feet
And he raised me up there
Then cut me off at the knees
I trusted the law
They didn’t help me at all
I wound up black, blue, screwed
In the back of his car
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna wake up alone
I need you to hear me now
I don't wanna do it alone
I need you here with me now
[Chorus]
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
They got me and I'll never give up
But I need you to save me now
Well, they feed upon the poor
My head is banging on the floor
Yes it's over, yes it's over
They're lying
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
Save me now
