Choirboy – Can't Save Me Now lyrics

Tonight I'm walking down the street,
Tonight I'm walking past your house,
It's almost midnight,
But your light is on,
And boyfriend's cars on the curb

I know the right things to ignore it,
I know that I should ignore it,
But instead I'll sit in the bushes and watch as your shadows pass through
Your window

After a while I turn away,
Then I hear your boyfriend come out and say,
Kid, you're so dead,
Grabs me by my collar and I hang my head

I pray,
I pray that you'll come out,
You're light it goes out,
And you can't save me now,
Nobody will save me now,
No, nobody will save me now,
Punch after punch nobody will save me,
No, you can't save me now,
No, you can't save me now

Punch after punch,
Lying in the dust,
As your boyfriend drives off,
In his shiny new car,
I drag myself home,
I drag myself into tomorrow,
Into another day of torture,
Again and again and again,
And again

That night as I lay in my bed,
I dream of me and you,
Of what it would be like if he wasn't here,
If I had the courage,
If I had no fear

I pray,
I pray that you'll come out,
You're light it goes out,
And you can't save me now,
Nobody will save me now,
No, nobody will save me now,
Punch after punch nobody will save me,
No, you can't save me now,
No, you can't save me now

Tonight I'm walking down the street,
Tonight I'm walking past your house,
It's almost midnight,
But your light is on,
And boyfriend's cars on the curb

I know the right things to ignore it,
I know that I should ignore it,
But instead I'll sit in the bushes and watch as your shadows pass through
Your window

Because that's the risk I'll take,
And the risk that I'm taking for you
