Save the Man
Broken were the promises that you vowed to keep
You'd tell me lies and wear them good enough to believe
The man you never wanted is the one whose secrets always kept
If I had to be honest you're the one I do regret
Save the Man, Save the Man instead
(Save the Man)
Putting you through hell and back
He's at it again
Hitting you like a punching bag
There's no chance you'd win
Fight after fight year after year
How do you put up with the fear?
Save the Man, Save the Man my dear
Suspicious were my inner thoughts that I spoke out against
Checking your phone to see who it really is
Not really what I wanted but you took me down that path
A heart that can't be trusted but somehow we make it last
I told you I don't want this but you'd cry until I come back
I'm tired of that
I won't save the man if oxygen was slowly running out
I'd feed him lies and make him cry if I had nothing to worry about
I wouldn't let him have any friends just so the world can see
That the man that you saved didn't care enough to save me
(Dancing with Myself)
I fall in love with the mystery
I'm thinking back on the history
I tell the world cause I know that they're listening
I'm putting trust in every friend that I make
(Dancing with Myself)
I'm still moving off beat
It's like I can't even see
That I'm tripping over me
With every step that I take
I'm tired of calling for help
There are no more tears for crying
I get pulled further into hell
Without even trying
I'll keep dancing with myself
instead of always hiding
And I won't trust no one else
That's why I dance in silence
I watch myself in the mirror
Being careful with each step
I'll keep moving right
So that things don't go left
people watch me all night
Asking if I'm alright
But I'm enjoying my own company
Because there is no one else in sight
No more fighting with myself trying to take the lead
Every secret they tell can no longer hurt me
I pick my feet up off the ground
And dance to my own speed
They still find their way to me somehow
Even though I'm moving silently
I will just lead the night
And follow me into the morning
But when the sun comes up
There's another mistake for me
They say, "it ain't like you."
And I'll admit I get confused
I just forgot those last moves
What did I just do?
I'm tired of calling for help
Dancing with Myself
There are no more tears for crying
I get pulled further into hell
Without even trying
I'll keep dancing with myself
instead of always hiding
And I won't trust no one else
That's why I dance in silence
Dancing with Myself
