in the morning
i was anxious
was better just to stay in bed
didn’t want to fail myself again
looking through all the options
and the endings
were all laid out in front of me
but i couldn’t choose a thread to begin
and i could not love
cause i could not love myself
never good enough, no
that was all i’d tell myself
and i was not well
but i could not help myself
i was giving up on living
in the morning
you were leaving
traveling south again
and you said you were not unprepared
all of the dead ends
disappointments
were fading from your memory
waiting for that lonely life to end
and you gave me love
when i could not love myself
and you made me turn
from the way i saw myself
and i was not well
but you helped me help myself
and you saved me
yeah, you saved me
and you saved me
