The clouds are rollin' in
Who will watch them?
The waves are strong
The boat is gone
I hope they're swimmin'

Little boy lost in woods
Where's the clearing?
The town is out
They're calling loud
But he's not hearing

It seems to me I'm always miles away
Looking for my own face

Save me from myself
I can't relate
We're mouth to mouth
And still I suffocate
There's nothing left
Inside for me to break
Save me from myself

The bullet in the yard
Slowly rusting
The bottles crack
The kids come back
And I'm just lookin'

The wine is on the floor
The candles flicker
Your eyes fall
And I'm apalled
It's all just cinder

That seems to me we're always miles apart
Trying to find another place to start

Save me from myself
I can't relate
We're mouth to mouth
And still I suffocate
There's nothing left
Inside for me to break
Save me from myself

The sailors never left
They knew the weather
When they were found
They were having drinks together

They found the little boy in the grocery
Happy endings all around
And still they haunt me

Save me from myself
I can't relate
We're mouth to mouth
And still I suffocate
There's nothing left
Inside of me to break
Save me from myself

Save me from myself
There's nothing left inside me
There's nothing left
