Love, Come Save Me Now

The river's running,
And I'm running upstream.
I'm going down, down, down it seems.
I can't explain what's happening to me.
I'm going down, it seems.

The people on the bank
Stand staring at me.
I'm going down, down, down it seems.
I'm losing my grip.
I can't catch my breath.
I'm going down, down, is it over yet?

And I can hear the angels calling,
But I don't want to answer them.
I don't want to say a thing.
They say, 'Pull yourself together.
Today, it isn't over.'
And all I could help to say was,
'Love, come save me now.'

The tide is rising,
And I'm in too deep.
I'm going down, down, down it seems.
The stars in the night, shine,
Laughing at me.
I'm going down it seems.

The people on the shore
Stand staring at me.
I'm going down, down, down it seems.
I'm losing my grip.
I can't take a breath.
I'm going down, down, it's not over yet.

'Cause I can hear the angels singing.
And I don't need to answer them.
I don't need to say a thing.
'Cause they'll say, 'Pull yourself together.
Tonight, it isn't over.'
And all I want to say is,
'Love, come save me now.'


The sun is shining through,
Waking my sleep.
I'm going down, down, down, it seems.
To the bank by the river,
To hear the angels sing,
I'm going down, down, down it seems

To hear the angels calling.
Tonight, I'm going to answer them.
I know what I want to say.
When they say, 'Pull yourself together.
Tonight, it isn't over.'
All I have to ask of them is,
'Love, come save me now.'

Love, come save me now.

Sweet Like Honey

You're sweet like honey,
And you know it so well.
But you're not funny
When you put me through Hell.
And you don't know it,
But you'll get what's coming.

You can't manipulate everyone you see.
It doesn't work like that.
The world will never kiss your feet,
Though you're so used to that.
When your pedestal is gone,
You will see.

You're sweet like honey.
Has it served you well?
Have all your demons yet proceeded,
Or are you still in Hell?
And you don't know it yet,
But someday you will.

You can't manipulate everyone you see.
It doesn't work like that.
The world won't always kiss your feet,
So don't get used to that.
When your high horse is gone,
You will see.


She's sweet like honey.
You wouldn't give her the chance.
It's rather quite funny
How she moved on with her plans.
All you ever had to do
Was stop being a boy and become a man.

But you manipulate everyone you see.
But it doesn't work like that.
The world will never kiss your feet,
So, now, what do you have?
Now, you are left all alone.
So just stop running.

You're sweet like honey.
You know it so well.
Do you think it's funny
As you're running through Hell?
You don't know it yet,
But you'll get what's coming.

Come Around

Help me 'cause I can't recall
If you ever loved me at all.
All those times I waited by the phone,
But no one ever called at all.

Help me 'cause I don't remember
Who it was that you had your arms around
When I was drying my own tears without anybody here.
You don't remember.
You don't remember me, my dear.

Help me, help me settle down.
Help me, help me come around.
I've never been so alone.
I've never felt so left out.
Don't you ever, ever come around.

Now, help me 'cause I don't recall
Why I ever loved you at all.
All those time that you waited by the phone
Praying that I never called.

Baby, I'll help you to remember
How it feels when she walks away.
You can look into my eyes and hear the words I sing.
And you'll remember.
You'll remember everything.

And it'll help me, help me settle down.
It'll help me, help me come around.
I've never felt more free than when you walked away from me.
Don't you ever, ever come around.

Don't you ever pick up that phone
And hear my name in the dial tone.
Don't see me in the strangers on the street;
You never took your chances to see me.

Help me, help me settle down.
Help me, help me come around.
I've never been so alone.
I've never felt so run down.

Help me, help me come around.
The wings have fate have been cut down.
I've never felt more free than when you walked away from me.
Don't you ever, ever come around.

Help me 'cause I don't recall
If you ever loved me at all.
Help me 'cause I don't remember
Why we ever thought it'd be forever.
