Savior - Burning Down Alaska

i never thought i'd be

as close to the edge as i am today

if there's no one to hold me back

i might be better off taking a step forward

but there's one thing i can't forget

the promise i made to never regret

to never look back

and to always be brave

but what if i'm the one who needs to be saved

what if there's no savior

what if there's no way to come back home

what if we wait forever

to find a way - we'll find a way

over and over

again and again

will we be released

will it ever end

demanding our hero

we're crying for help

if time won't save us

can we save ourselves

searching for answers, a restless mind

a place that knows

neither dark nor light

a truth i denied

something left undone

the fear i swore i would overcome

over and over

again and again

awaiting our savior without avail

rely on your hero

i won't cry for help

rather trade my life

for the trust in myself

if there's no one who can

enlighten my pathway from now til the end

if there's no one to right me

to hold and to guide me

i'll raise my head

for i'm surviving
