Lyrics for I Want To Save You as interpreted by ltb

I Want To Save You Lyrics
standing on the edge of morning
scent of sex and new found glory
playing as she's pulling back her hair
she drives away
she's feeling worthless
used again but nothing's different
she stayed the night
but knows he doesn't care

home by three
deafening quiet
the porch light's off
yes they forgot it
she'd cry herself to sleep
but she don't dare
then she wants to be a model
she wants to hear she's beautiful
she's beautiful

i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you
save me too
i want to save you

dressed by dawn and out the door
no light
she memorized the floor
so she could leave without being detected
she works till three
it's uniform
she dreams that he'll come by the store
she prays for days
the boys mean she's protected
and she wants someone to see her
she needs to hear she's beautiful
she's beautiful

i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you
save me too
i want to save you

and she won't sleep
she won't sleep
and she won't sleep
at all

i want to save you
i want to save you
i need you
save me too
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you
(let me save you)
i want to save you

I agree with Spo0neh, the girl in the song does sound to be a prostitue and the song is amazingly beautiful.

"she prays for days
the boys mean she's protected" - instead of? money?

this song is about a prostitute...the girl in this song is a prostitute....she sleeps with many different men and all she wants is to be told she is beautiful...but she knows the men don't care about her. she feels worthless because all she is to these men is a prostitute...she isn't loved by any of them...
but he wants to save her...save her from all this..

a great song! i love it!

this song is awesome to listen to when youre just driving down the highway for a good think.

i think this song is just all about a girl who really likes a guy, she knows hes bad for her but she still sneaks out and has sex with him. her parents dont give her enough attetion so she strives for some from this guy, but he just wont give her any. she isnt very confident with herself and thinks shes ugly. she needs sombody to tell her elsewise . shes depressed and in this song , andrew is telling her he wants to save her and she just wont let him

I love, absolutely love Something Corporate!! This song just happens to be my favorate out of ALL their songs. It's not their most wellknown song but I adore it! For the guys, there is simply nothing better you can do than call the girl you love "beautiful"...there is just nothing, sweeter, cuter, or more romantic. The words you choose do make a difference

this song is about a girl whose being used by a guy she cares for greatly. shes not a girl whose sleeping around. she just cares for this one guy who she cant seem to seperate herself from. she knows he doesnt feel the same way about her but over and over again she goes back..hoping one day he'll tell her what she needs to hear. shes sick of wasting her time, its so routine she doesn't even cry herself to sleep anymore.

I felt I needed to share the significance of this song somewhere.

This girl in the song, this fictional character created by Andrew, has changed my life... in such a drastic way. Ever since I started listening to it, and understanding what dilemma this girl was in, I started feeling more empathy for humans I don't know very well personally. Whenever I see someone in distress, I am reminded of this song. And whenever I see someone I, for whatever reason, interpret as "emotion-less", I rethink it and remember that there is so much to that person's life that I don't know about. All thanks to this song, really. It makes me realize that there is so much about people that we don't understand, or know. Situations they are in, their emotions, and things we never take into account.

This song is a great song because it's about something a lot of girls go through. The girl in the song sleeps around, because she wants to feel loved. This might be because her family doesn't give her attention ("the porch light's off; yes they forgot it"). So she sleeps with a lot of guys, hoping that she will find the one who will tell her he loves her and that she's beautiful. She has hopes (she wants to be a model) but she has very low self esteem. The guy singing is telling her that he's the one who can save her by telling her she's beautiful, and loving her, not just using her.

well in all honesty, it cant be about a prostitute and it says nothing about a whore. 20 bucks says its a highschool graduate, shes probably like 19, and she still lives with her parents [hint the home by three
deafening quiet
the porch light's off
yes they forgot it]

and also, i DOUBT its talking about sleeping around.

i think its just a girl stuck in suburbia, and he wants to take her away from that, out of all that and into a better life with him.

"she dreams that he'll come by the store "

so she cant be a prostitiute...

and also...if she wants him so bad and wants him to come to the store...why would she sleep around? her goal is already whomever shes talking about

Being used for sex.

Because she'll take whatever she can from him. Because she knows she might not get the chance again and he means so much to her.

And thats the way its always been. All they see her for is sex.

End of.

But Andrew also says "I need you. Save me too." He loves her. He doesn't want to just make her life better, he'll be making his own better through her as well. Perhaps he's caught in this frame of life too, and together they can save one another.

this song is about a girl who kinda sleeps around and stuff.. she knows what she's doing is wrong, but she hopes it'll be different each time.. even though she knows deep down it wont
"she dreams that he'll come by the store
she prays for days
the boys mean she's protected"
she knows shes getting hurt by boys
the songs about a boy who realizes this and he wants to be the guy who changes everything for her.. someone who wants to hear shes beautiful and thinks shes perfect the way she is:
"then she wants to be a model
she wants to hear she's beautiful
she's beautiful"

and also she's tired of feeling sorry for herself, she cant help but be sad but she tries to forget about it and move on.. cuz she knows deep down its her fault:
"she'd cry herself to sleep
but she don't dare"


i donno.. thats what i got out of it. but its a phenomenal song.

I feel like saying that this song shaped a good amount of my teenage years.
I was obsessed with it in 2004, when I was 14 and I still love it now, as a 19 year old.

I feel like I went through the past few years just like the girl in the song

"she works till three
it's uniform
she dreams that he'll come by the store"

She secretly knows a guy like that won't come by the store to see her at work, but daydreaming about it gets her through her day.

"then she wants to be a model
she wants to hear she's beautiful
she's beautiful"

This reminds me of the quote "Do you love me because I'm beautiful, or am I beautiful because you love me?"
I feel like this girl is gorgeous, but she really needs to hear it. She doesn't love herself enough, because she goes around sleeping with so many guys. But she really just wants someone who loves her to call her beautiful. Perhaps she can only fully love herself unless some guy actually loves her.

This song is perfect.
