Save Me From You

By Simply Me

Save Me From You


I've let you talk me into something.
Must've let my defenses down.
I thought I was in complete control,
and I'd be the one who wore the crown.

Thought I was being cautious,
but my insecurities let you in.
Put all my trust in your strong hands,
and now my weakness made me sin.

You glorified the bad in me,
and somehow I felt complete.
I felt like I could rule the world,
even if I had to cheat.

I've got myself in trouble now,
and you're lovin what that means.
I've gotta get away some how,
and I don't wanna be your queen.

I don't know why I love you,
or why I've let you take control.
Now I depend on you to tell me,
how only you can make me whole.

I'll never get away from you,
no matter how hard I try.
I can't stand to have you in my life,
but without out you I will die.
