Ed Sheeran - 16 - Save Myself

[00:00.80] I gave all my oxygen to people that could breathe

[00:05.55] I gave away my money and now we don't even speak

[00:11.55] I drove miles and miles, but would you do the same for me?

[00:17.30] Oh, honestly?

[00:24.05] Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry upon

[00:29.80] Gave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warm

[00:35.81] They gave me the heartache and in return I gave a song

[00:41.57] It goes on and on

[00:47.55] Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels

[00:53.55] I drown it with a drink and out-of-date prescription pills

[00:59.56] And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf

[01:06.30] No farewell

[01:09.30] So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself

[01:19.30] I gave you all my energy and I took away your pain

[01:25.30] 'Cause human beings are destined to radiate or drain

[01:31.30] What line do we stand upon, 'cause from here it looks the same

[01:37.05] And only scars remain

[01:43.32] Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels

[01:49.05] I drown it with a drink and out-of-date prescription pills

[01:55.05] And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf

[02:01.80] No farewell

[02:04.80] So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself

[02:13.80] But if I don't

[02:16.55] Then I'll go back

[02:19.80] To where I'm rescuing a stranger

[02:22.81] Just because they needed saving just like that

[02:28.55] Oh, I'm here again

[02:31.55] Between the devil and the danger

[02:34.80] But I guess it's just my nature

[02:37.54] My dad was wrong

[02:40.05] 'Cause I'm not like my mum

[02:43.80] 'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a song

[02:50.05] But it helps

[02:52.80] So before I save someone else

[02:56.55] I've got to save myself

[03:03.04] Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels

[03:08.55] I drown it with a drink and out-of-date prescription pills

[03:14.54] And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf

[03:21.29] No farewell

[03:24.29] So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself

[03:33.29] And before I blame someone else, I've got to save myself

[03:42.29] And before I love someone else, I've got to love myself
