Jo Nash - Save Yourself lyrics

rate me

The preacher speaks out loud

The congregation hears him shout

Grandma's eating flies, the baby starts to cry

And Billy's coloring in the Bible again.

So his mind starts thinking,

He watches the man pour sugar in his coffee cup

The spoon is spinning around,

The crystals are circling down

And the preacher repeats himself,

Be the one to save yourself

I swear he was talking to me,

No one else.

Be the one to save yourself,

I swear he was talking to me.

Sticks his nose to the car window

Blows out fog and begins to trace

His finger draws around,

Dots for eyes, a nose and a frown

Mom yells put your seatbelt on

Be the one to save yourself

I swear she was talking to me

No one else.

Be the one to save yourself,

I swear she was talking to me.

Why would you need someone to tell you,

Someone to ask you someone to show you?

Why would you need someone to hear you,

Someone to give you a reason to love yourself?

But his eyes are busy looking

Sees an old man pushing a shopping cart

It's full of blankets and silver cans

Black trash bags and in his hands

He holds a sign it reads

Be the one to save yourself

I swear he was looking at me,

No one else.

Be the one to save yourself

I swear he was looking at me.
