Glen Johnson
Save Me
I never asked you so you never told meThat's the way that it's always played outIt may be pride, we're a stubborn familyWe run a mile from the threat of emotionI know you love me but the words are frozenYou think it's given but you've always takenAnd you're too busy with the imminent dyingTo even notice there's a life needs livingDon't close your book yetDon't choose your stone yetI think about you when the nights get colderOr with the passing of a distant shipI often see you in the bathroom mirrorLines mark battles on your sallow skinWe used to fight in the war of brothersWhen I was seven, I would kick down your doorBut now I'm older, there's a weight on my shouldersI carry my conscience like never before
