Song Lyrics (*Inspired by "Jesus, Take the Wheel"*)

Save Me
(*Inspired by "Jesus, Take the Wheel"*)



She was going through life
Not giving, not living
On her way to who-knows-where
On roads with no signs
She cried the whole way home
But no one ever knew
She hid the pain so well



She wore a perfect smile
Hid every scar inside
It had been a long, hard year
And she was barely holding on
Then she hit a sheet of ice
Lost control beneath the storm
Spinning out
The fight in her was gone



She looked up through the dark
With tears in her eyes
And whispered to the wind:
"Save me tonight."



She begged:
*Take this pain, take this fear*
*I don't want to die out here*
*All I know is I can't go on*
*And I don't want to die alone*



She'd pushed it down so long
But it all came rushing in
The weight, the shame, the silent cries
She couldn't hide within



So she let it go, arms shaking
Voice breaking as she said:
"Just save me.
Take this hurt from my hands.
I can't do this on my own.
I'm letting go of control."



**Bridge:**
I'm sorry for the way I've lived
I ran from truth, I tried to quit
But I'm not ready for goodbye
Please, give me one more try



If You'll save my soul
I'll change my life
I'll turn around
I'll make it right



**Final Chorus / Outro:**
She was scared
It felt like the end
But somehow, she found the strength to pray again:



"Save me...
Tonight
I can't do this on my own
I can't push it down
But I swear I'll fight
Just save me--
Tonight."
