You, looked at me as you walked in the room Like the red sea, you split me open Somehow I knew these wings were stolen All you did was save my life Tried to run but I couldn't move Well I paid for these concrete shoes But like a singer that sings the blues You saw hope in the hopeless I'm not dying All you did was save my life Pulled me out of that flat line Put the heartbeat back inside I'm not dying All you did was get me through I owe every breath to you Heart and soul unparalyzed All you did was save my life Save my life I'm not for sale but I've been sold The more I hear the less I know And the lies are swallowed whole In their insignificance The story's been told a million times But it's different when it's your life I won the lottery tonight The lottery tonight The lottery tonight I'm not dying All you did was save my life Pulled me out of that flat line Put the heartbeat back inside I'm not dying All you did was get me through I owe every breath to you Heart and soul unparalyzed All you did was save my life I started to come around The dogs are backing down I'm not afraid to see The devil's gone underground This tightrope's been cut down And I can finally breathe You, looked at me as you walked in the room Like the red sea you split me open Somehow I knew these wings were stolen I'm not dying All you did was save my life Pulled me out of that flat line Put the heartbeat back inside I'm not dying All you did was get me through I owe every breath to you Heart and soul unparalyzed All you did was save my life All you did was save my life (Put the heart beat back inside) All you did was save my life (Put the heart beat back inside) All you did was save my life.
