You Saved My Life
Cass McCombs
In this spare room
We better see what we have and whom
An I.O.U. for the Same Thing
Only angels have wings, so they say
Here I stand, alive unto you
My fate’s mercy seat
Sought blood to gulp and flesh to eat
And I can’t blame you enough
But I’m indebted to your mercy and your love
Here I stand, alive unto
Alive unto you
Because you saved my life
Now I see there’s so much to lose
So much to lose
Because you saved my life
Darling, now I
Must live for you
One reprieve grants another
Until each world is born anew
Never understand, never can ignore
I’m rotten to the core, since 1994
