Save Me From Myself

(ambient rainfall storm opening, cinematic intro, with a build into strength and resolve)

(Verse 1)

I hear the silence when the night comes in

Every shadow knows the shape of my sin

I try to run but I’m caged in my skin

Fighting a war I don’t know how to win

Every promise that I tried to keep

Falls like ashes at my feet

I see the man I don’t wanna be

Staring right back through me

(Pre-Chorus)

I’m on my knees but my hands still shake

Every choice feels like a mistake

If You’re listening through the noise I make…

(Chorus)

God, save me from myself tonight

From the darkness I try to hide

From every lie I justify

Every wrong I make feel right

Give me strength when I’m about to fall

When temptation’s screaming loud

Break these chains I built somehow

Don’t let me drown in me right now

God, save me… from myself

(Verse 2)

I taste the poison but I call it peace

Feed the fire while I beg release

I know the cost but I pay the fee

Trading my soul for a moment’s ease

I walk the edge of a broken line

Cross it every single time

I need a will that isn’t mine

‘Cause mine keeps leaving me behind

(Pre-Chorus)

I’m so tired of this endless fight

Of losing ground every night

If You’re there, I need Your light…

(Chorus)

God, save me from myself tonight

From the weakness deep inside

From every urge I let decide

Every truth I push aside

Give me power just to say “no”

When my heart wants to let go

Be the voice that pulls me close

When I’m standing at the edge alone

God, save me… from myself

(Bridge – soft, emotional, almost whispered)

I don’t trust these hands of mine

They keep reaching for the fire

I don’t trust this heart of mine

It’s a slave to its desires

So take the weight, take control

Rebuild the pieces of my soul

‘Cause I can’t do this on my own…

(Drop / Instrumental – ambient choir, piano, slow build)

(Final Chorus – bigger, hopeful)

God, save me from myself tonight

Be the strength I cannot find

Rewrite the patterns of my life

Turn this wrong into what’s right

Give me willpower, make me strong

Help me choose where I belong

Even when it all feels wrong

Be the reason I hold on

God, save me…

From myself

(Outro)

And if I fall, don’t let me stay

Pull me back, show me the way

One step closer every day…

Save me from myself
