SONG LYRICS
Lie in this empty bed
With this aching head
You left me here this morning
Now I can't remember why
I let you in again
To get under my skin
And every time you disappear
I remember

How I look for you
But I can't see your face
And then I hear you
The only thing you say...

I am afraid right now
I don't wanna let you down
And I am the one who can't be saved
The only thing I say
I am afraid right now
What if I can't get out?
What if I don't want to be saved?
This is me afraid

Now there's no place like home
To make me feel alone
I see you everywhere I am
And I remember how you ran out to hide
You kept me close behind
Following your every move so I remember

I look for you
But I can't see your face
And then I hear you
The only thing you say...

I am afraid right now
I don't wanna let you down
And I am the one who can't be saved
The only thing I say
I am afraid right now
What if I can't get out?
What if I don't want to be saved?
This is me afraid

I look for you
But I can't see your face
Then I hear you
The only thing you say is
Don't look for me
Cause you will never say
You won't hear me
You won't hear me

Why do we keep this up?
Why do we live like us?
When there is nothing left to save
Will you be afraid?

I am afraid right now
You already let me down
You are the one who can't be saved
If only I could say
I am afraid right now
You never will get out
You'll never let yourself be saved
You are so afraid
You are so afraid

MY REVIEW:
I always wondered that since his high school years Mr Key
used to promise girls and ladies the lightful side of the world
and to save them from sorority land, actually what it's obvious for real
girls were too smart to believe him because as you can see in his lyrics
and life attitude and behaviour
he is the most suffering sorority i have ever seen
in the lightful side of the universe...
as well i wonder that maybe it was him who needed to be
escaped from sorority lands by the ladies
which didn't happen even lately
because as they expressed and as we can return in back:
like those girl from high school and LUTS, Ryan Key didn't want to be saved.
Closed pandhora box puzzle,
i'm off.


Best line:you'll never let yourself be saved

What I think the lyrics are about:a guy that is afraid and always feels fears, you know, phobies...
maybe he fears that he is gonna remain lonely for the rest of his life
as well
a guy who doesn't want to be saved, so yeah lost cause, wasted time
and who has nothing there more interesting to do, come
to pity him.

What this song reminds me of: Ryan Key of course and his fears...*sigh*

My bottom-line review:*ring bells* we need YC band helping heads & hands to write lyrics
for the next Yellowcard album
especially lightful, optimistic and life experienced lyrics lines.

My rating:medium
