Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I trusted a priest
I fell to his feet
And he raised me up there
And cut me off at the knees
[Verse 2]
I trusted the law
They didn't help me at all
I wound up black, blue, screwed
In the back of his car
[Verse 3]
I don't wanna wake up alone
I need you to hear me now
I don't wanna do it alone
I need you here with me now
[Verse 4]
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
They caught me and I'll never give up
But I need you to save me now
When they feed upon the pole
My head is banging on the phone
This is over, yes it's over, they're lying
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now (Save me now)
[Verse 5]
I once had a girl
I gave her my world
But she played around, put me down
Still wanted the pearl
[Verse 6]
So I went to a priest
Yes, I fell to his knees
And he just raised me up
To cut me off at the knees
[Verse 7]
I don't wanna wake up alone
I need you to hear me now
I don't wanna do it alone
I need you here with me now
[Verse 8]
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
They caught me and I'll never give up
But I need you to save me now
'Cause the priest and the law
Truth is pounding at the door
Yes it's over, yes it's over, they're dying
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now (Save me now)
[Verse 9]
Whoa, whoa oh, whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh oh
(You can save me now)
Whoa, whoa oh, whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh oh
[Verse 10]
I don't wanna wake up alone
I need you to hear me now
I don't wanna do it alone
I need you here with me now
[Verse 11]
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now
They caught me and I'll never give up
And I need you to save me now
Well they feed upon pole
My head is banging on the phone
Yes it's over, yes it's over, they're lying
I don't wanna wait for your love
I need you to save me now (Save me now)
[Verse 12]
Whoa, whoa oh, whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh oh
(You can save me now)
Whoa, whoa oh, whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh oh
(You can save me now)
