Saved Your Life

Dear friend, when you said
That you’ve been dropping bombs on your own head
It made me sad, ‘cause you’re a man
And you’ve got your own blood on your own hands

What you stole, what you took
Could break a heart and fill a book
The story, a tragedy
And your memory will always be…

I saved your life a hundred times
Is this all that I get?
It’s a total, a total waste of time
I saved your life, I tried to share
Now I don’t even care
It’s a total, a total waste of time

Forces in, the good guys win
But your enemy, it was within
It mad me sad, you were a man
‘Til you had your own blood on your own hands

I saved your life a hundred times
Is this all that I get?
It’s a total, a total waste of time
I saved your life, I tried to share
Now I don’t even care
It’s a total, a total waste of time

I saw the light from the lawn
You were out walking, three in the morn’
The flashing came, a siren wail
And I have never seen skin so pale.
