This is the place that no one sees
I don't like to show (I can't help it)
This is the darkness over me
It's just the world I know (I can't stop it)
Reachin' for the light
Reachin' from inside
Help me tonight
I'm closer to the edge (Tonight)
I'm standin' on the ledge (So why)
Won't you reach out your hand
To save (To save), to save me? (Tonight)
I'm damaged if you dare (Tonight)
It feels like no one cares (So why)
Can't I come up for air?
Just save (Just save), just save me
What are you waitin' for?
Someone save me
Peel back the skin, exposed to you
Take pleasure in the pain (Please don't stop it)
Tell me what I'm supposed to do
It ain't easy to open up this way (I can't help it)
Reachin' for the light
Reachin' from inside
Help me tonight
I'm closer to the edge (Tonight)
I'm standin' on the ledge (So why)
Won't you reach out your hand
To save (To save), to save me? (Tonight)
I'm damaged if you dare (Tonight)
It feels like no one cares (So why)
Can't I come up for air?
Just save (Just save), just save me
What are you waitin' for?
Someone save me
Reachin' for the light
Reachin' from inside
Help me tonight
I'm closer to the edge (Tonight)
I'm standin' on the ledge (So why)
Won't you reach out your hand
To save, to save me? (Tonight)
I'm damaged if you dare (Tonight)
It feels like no one cares (So why)
Can't I come up for air?
Just save (Just save), just save me (Tonight)

💡 Song Meaning & Background
This track is an urgent, desperate cry for divine intervention to be rescued from one's own destructive habits and pain. It echoes the many Psalms of lament where David cries out to God to save him from his enemies and himself.
