Savior

INTRO: (2x) When your blood is boiling and your heart is full of fear A savior doesn't visit, miracles don't appear The minute hand ticks slower and the hour hand don't move When you can't dream the future and you have somethin' to prove You need an explosion to clean out all the pain Clouds just swell in silence while you're waiting for the rain The phone looks like a cobra on the table by the bed Even if your savior called, everything's been said Your nerves grow thru your soul like racing evil vines You read her goodbye letter and try to see between the lines Prayin' to be sleepin' when the house burns to the ground But hopin' on the other hand, somehow you'll be found People try to be a friend, they come by for a talk But when they start the speech, the words just break in two like chalk A-waiting for the sweat that pours out when the fever breaks Wishin' you could take back every one of your mistakes BRIDGE: Do you find a fix Do you give up on everything and sit and take your licks Do the lonely and the broken ones keep waiting for it all Or do they just lay down and accept the bitter fall BREAK: But then some tiny magic starts to grow and warm your veins That mystery of life somehow keeps you kinda sane A daydream starts to grow that hasn't been there in awhile The kids are in the backyard and it makes you start to smile The savior rushes in and grabs you hard and holds you strong And not the one you wait for, one that's been there all along The daydream doesn't end, instead your smile turns to a laugh As the young ones teach you once again to be the better half So you suck the poison from your blood and kick the bastard out And walk out in the sunlight into what it's all about BRIDGE: You can't find a fix You can't give up on anything, especially when you're sick If you're a lonely or a broken one, keep givin' it your all So when you finally lay down, you'll know you didn't fall OUTRO:
