Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When morning breaks
We hide our eyes and our lungs ache
Ain't nothin' strange
It was in our hands from 6 to 10
It slipped right out again
[Instrumental]
There'll be no better time
There'll be no better way
There'll be no better day to save me
Save me
Yeah, save me
Yeah, save me
I hope you see like I see
I hope you see what I see
I hope you feel like I feel
[Instrumental]
And the world don't stop
There is no time for cracking up
Believe me friend
'Cause when freedom comes
I'll be long gone
You know it has to end
[Chorus]
There'll be no better time
There'll be no better way
There'll be no better day to save me
Save me
Yeah, save me
Yeah, save me
I hope you see like I see
I hope you feel like I feel
Someone to stand beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
[Instrumental]
Weeping willow
The pills under my pillow
Weeping willow
The pills under my pillow
Weeping willow
The gun under your pillow
Weeping willow
Weeping willow
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
