Savior Lyrics
Until you crash
Until you burn Until you lie Until you learn Until you see Until you believe Until you fight Until you fall Until the end of everything at all Until you die Until you're alive Don't save me, don't save me 'Cuz I don't care Don't save me, don't save me 'Cuz I don't care Until you give Until you've used Until you've lost Until you lose Until you see How could you believe? Until you've lived a thousand times Until you've seen the other side This is my chance, this is my chance Don't save me, don't save me 'Cuz I don't care Don't save me, don't save me 'Cuz I don't care Until the truth becomes a lie Until you change Until you deny Until you believe... This is my chance, this is my chance I'll take it now because I can This is my chance, I want it now Don't save me, don't save me 'Cuz I don't care Don't save me, don't save me 'Cuz I don't care Save me Save me Save me Save me Save me Save me I don't care

He doesnt care about what you think, cause if he cant do it himself, then why even try, that isnt the point of life, you need to do it yourself, or you can never do it yourself.
But that is just what I think.

He's thinkign of killing himself, and he knows that most people don't understand why they would want to kill themselves. But when you're depressed, you don't really care and feel numb inside, for lack of another way of saying it. Anyways, he's hit rock bottom and killing himself is the only way/chance out.
However, the last part where he repeates "save me"...err..i unno? =P

but I agree with lyverus more. and its evident from the first couple of seconds of the song, when they say "you always do that, he's always so sure about something, you have conviction and I appreciate that" which means at the end when he's saying save me save me, it means he wanted to die, and then he realized he didnt want to in the end.
but then again maybe he wants to die because of the first comments idea of the girl. who knows.
great song either way.

This, to me, is about a person, more likely a girl, who is in some sort of group. It doesn't matter what group it is, only know that it is not some kiddy book club or something. And this new person comes in and basically gets the rest of the people to follow him except for this guy. This guy's been through everything in the song and he's basically had enough and he's now standing up and addressing the people of the group and convincing him that the new guy's not the way to go.

Until you crash
Until you burn
[He’s saying until you’ve failed at something so completely it’s had SEVERE consequences]
Until you lie
Until you learn
[Until you’ve lied your way out of dangerous situations and learned the truth]
Until you see
Until you believe
[Until you’ve seen the truth and believe it]
Until you fight
Until you fall
[Until you’ve fought your own fights and lost them as well]
Until the end of everything at all
[If you keep your vows and promises and duties until the very end]
Until you die
Until you're alive
[Until you’ve died, whether in spirit, mind, or body and have been reborn anew and are living life the way it should be lived]
Don't save me, don't save me
'Cuz I don't care
Don't save me, don't save me
'Cuz I don't care
[Until you’ve done these things, don’t try to “liberate “ me]
Until you give
Until you've used
[Until you’ve given something up and until you’ve used someone else gift]
Until you've lost
Until you lose
[Until you’ve lost, like, a fight or something special and until you lose the biggest of them all]
Until you see
How could you believe?
[You preached about believing, but how can you until you’ve seen the truth?]
Until you've lived a thousand times
Until you've seen the other side
[Until you’ve lived a thousand faces, a thousand personas and until you’ve seen the dark side of things]
This is my chance, this is my chance
[This is MY chance to lead, not yours]
Don't save me, don't save me
'Cuz I don't care
Don't save me, don't save me
'Cuz I don't care
Until the truth becomes a lie
[Until you realize that what you believed as the truth was a lie]
Until you change
Until you deny
[Until you convert to the customs of this group and deny the one’s of your old group]
Until you believe...
This is my chance, this is my chance
I'll take it now because I can
This is my chance, I want it now
[You can’t have it]
Don't save me, don't save me
'Cuz I don't care
Don't save me, don't save me
'Cuz I don't care
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
I don't care
[Again, he’s mocking the “Savior” and telling him to try and save him, possibly after something’s gone wrong and it was all the guy’s fault.]

so, at the end ("save me ...") he really is sort of mocking the idea of a saviour; he's sort of testing it, like "yeah, whatever.".

i think that it may be that the person speaking is the savior
[and it is seriously just a coincidence with my screename]
i think that he believes that he himself is in a depression, he does not want anyone to save him because he is not supposed to be saved because of who he is
he feels that until someone goes through and gains the knowledge that he has attained they cannot save him
and at the end he feels he doesnt care about his pride and just needs someone to save him
[although im starting to agree with arkangel more]

"I don't care" is a pretty standard response for someone suffering clinical/major depression when asked questions about their feelings and perspectives. Moreover, self-confidence and self-worth among depressives is pretty much non-existant, so when someone does reach out and try and help, it can quite often be thrown back in the 'saviors' face, out of complete and utter hopelessness that is transfered into anger. He feels, in this song, that he can't be saved. He is beyond help and so defective that opening up to anyone would take away the one thing holding him together - anger and hosility.
The last bit (save me; I don't care) it's a cry for help. It's saying he wants help, he wants someone to notice how miserable he is, and he does want to me saved. Nobody suffering depression wants to feel like that sort of desolation. Until you have, you can not imagine the depths of dispair it can induce. To me, it's saying "someone fucking notice, someone care, someone save me, because i've given up. I've tried, I've fought, I've lost and I can not do it by myself anymore. I don't care what happens to me anymore." Once you hit rock bottom, the struggle and effort required to get yourself out is just too draining, emotionally and mentally, to do it on your own. I reckon it's saying someone prove to me that there is someone out there that still gives a shit, because if theres not fuck it. I'm done.
It's really difficult to describe the emotions felt during a deep depressive episode, but this song, not only the lyrics, but how I interpret it, sums it up perfectly. I've gone through depressive episodes (not bloody emo 'depression' either, I actually have a real mental illness that swings me between depression, mania and psychosis, that I don't share with many people who know me personally) and this song just reflects so much of what i've gone through and been unable to vocalise with anyone.
There probably isn't a deep meaning behind the song, but it's how I interpret it, it's been a comfort song for a while now ;)

I think it's about a guy who is severely depressed. He's thinking of DOING something damaging to himself, whether it's trying drugs or committing suicide or something else. There are always people (parents, friends, counselors, etc.) trying to save him from the darkness he built around himself.
When he's saying all of those "until [insert words here]", he's telling all of those people that they don't understand. They haven't been through what he's been through, how can they help him? They will never understand until they experience what he has experienced. What they think he's feeling and thinking is not the reality at all.
The chorus is him telling everyone that they can't save him and to not even try. He doesn't care if they try and save him, and he won't even acknowledge it. They won't save him so why would he care in the first place? He thinks he is alone and that he is the only one that can have an impact on his life and himself.
Towards the end when he is talking about wanting this chance, it's after he has done whatever he had wanted to do (trying drugs, committing suicide, or some other self-damaging thing). He understands now that he needs help. He can't save himself. He wants this chance to live life like it should be lived again, but he already told all of those people that were trying to save him to fuck off. He wants the chance but he doesn't know if he will ever be saved. He doesn't know if he will ever have people there for him again. But at the same time, he doesn't want to be saved. The dark is inviting somehow. Maybe he doesn't deserve happiness. Maybe he was meant to live his life miserably so that others could have THEIR deserved happiness.
He's thoroughly confused about what he wants and the purpose of life. He wants this fogginess to clear up. He doesn't care anymore what happens to him. He wants someone to care and to save him, but he doesn't care at the same time which confuses him even more. He doesn't care because he knows that the chance that people will save him is unlikely, but it's also something else. He's confused about his life. He wants to be saved but he doesn't care at the same time. That's why he cries for help by saying "save me" repeatedly at the end and then adding "I don't care".

It's a person trying to tell a group of people that he doesn't need their help because he's gone through more than they will ever know. The, "Until you..." parts lead onto that, saying that the people will never know until they go through it like he had. Whether it's depression or what, I don't know, it very well could be. There is also a number of relgious aspects in there too, but there's also a lot of that in 30 Seconds to Mars... which makes me wonder...
Does anybody know what Jared Leto's religion is? He writes most of the songs, and from what I've examined along with a number of people, well...
I'm just plain curious.

"Until you give
Until you've used
Until you've lost
Until you lose
Until you see
How could you believe?"

"This is my chance, this is my chance
I'll take it now because I can
This is my chance, I want it now"
Maybe referring to liberation of helping one's self. Believing to want help now will make him believe that it will cease his situation completely.
"Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
I don't care"
The end sums up the internal message to the song. Way deep down inside somewhere he wants someone to guide him after all..but he is so used to not wanting it, he will still deny it.

its about someone who wants to commit suicide. they are contemplating and people are like "no dont do it everything will get better" but the narrator feels like they dont relate to him.
so he starts saying that no one can really relate to each other because we all deal with different things.
then he is like "this is my chance. dont save me." but then he is like "save me"
like give me a reason not to die. but no one does and he just ends with
"i dont care"
