Lyrics Save a Life - Led by Lanterns

Save a Life

25 to life is what I’m heading for but I can see no signs
Of an exit or an escape, these streets are taking me away
I never wanted to run (they told me not to)
But now I know what I’ve done (I didn’t know you)
This is what I have to live with (you are what they have to live without.)
And there’s an angel looking down from up above
And it carries all the names that we once loved
I’m hearing the sirens call for us
Surrender your Knife, It’s time to save a life
I don’t even want to understand
The trauma that is taking over me
Is this the life that I want to lead?
Surrounded by your bad advice and all these things you leave behind
They’ll light the way but these streets all look the same
Can’t you understand that you’re a coward not a man -so hand it over,
give it up and save yourself
And there’s an angel looking down from up above
And it carries all the names that we once loved
I’m hearing the sirens call for us
Surrender your Knife, It’s time to save a life
Can’t you understand that you’re a coward not a man — so hand it over,
give it up and save yourself
