Save Us

The day I fell in love with you 

I was at my happiest

but as I sit here thinking

All I see is that happiness

slowly slipping from me

I am trying to hold on to you

but with every fight

every tear

every raised voice

and every submission

I feel us slipping away

I have pleaded for you 

looked for some sort of saving grace

but you shut me and my love down

leaving me an empty shell

I want us to really work

I don't want to give up

But as I lay here bare

My soul pleads for freedom

and my heart cries to be repaired 

I hope we can save us

because I don't think my heart

can take another heartbreak
