Save Me from Marginal Street by Myles Cochran

SAVE ME
I know where I am: right here where I stand
Only yesterday I had lost my way

I was going round and round, didn't dare to make a sound
I would come and then be gone, never really did belong
Couldn't tell if you were right or I was wrong all along
And I said "Save me, save me, save me".

Now I can begin; I'll start right at the end.
Now I won't pretend everyone's my friend.
I was going round and round, didn't dare to make a sound
I was walking on a wire, every step a little higher.
I kept on 'til I surrendered all desire to be free
And I said "Save me, save me, save me".

I would come and then be gone, never really did belong
Couldn't tell if you were right or I was wrong all along
And I said "Save me, save me, save me".

If I were king then who would sing?
The birds at night and a golden ring.
If you were queen who would go between
The black of night and a shadow's dream?
