Rescue Me

Rescue me, Tell me it's almost over now Rescue me, From myself So far deep, Though I cannot see myself Who is this person? Can she hear my cries? Who is this person? Why am I trying not to break inside? Rescue me, From the feelings of myself Rescue me, I am not supposed to feel this way When all is said and done at night, I roll over and try not to cry on my side You are my poison I cannot seem to take, That stack of books, Piling up beside my couch One more page, I swear I will be done One more tear I try not to cry You softly brush against me, I try not to pay you no mind Your touch like daggers, Slowly drawing the line When the night comes will it be enough? To hang on to this stupid thing called love You turn your head the other way, Your name comes out, Burning like the overnight vodka I slowly drink away your memory, The alcohol lingering on my cheek Tomorrow, I tell myself it will not mean a thing, But in my head I am screaming Begging you to rescue me Wondering how long it will take you to set me free A flash of light, A single brush of the skin goodnight Small encounters that should not mean a thing, Though in my head I am begging pretty please, Say you will rescue me Begging you pretty please, Won't you come set me free
