Savior Mode

To the great unknown

Before you hit the road

Have you searched within or inside?

I don't really want to make you sad

And I would hate it if I made you uncomfortable

I'm in savior mode

So I'll let you go

Swallowing my pride

You're out the door

So I'll spare you all my emotions this time, this time

Now that you might die

I find it selfish to pain you with wanting closure

'Cause it's closed, I know

Mr. Sacrifice, make it barely known

But can it still remain inside?

When you leave for the voices calling you home

Will I grieve or will I miss anything at all?

I don't even have a photograph

Of us happy and healthy to hold on to

I'm in savior mode

So I'll let you go

Swallowing my pride

You're out the door

So I'll spare you all my emotions this time, this time

Now that you might die

I find it selfish to pain you with wanting closure

'Cause it's closed, I know

If there was a moment (I'll stay)

To lay it all down (so quiet now)

It's now (I'll stay)

Right now (so quiet now)

But I just can't see it (I'll stay)

Coming out my mouth (so quiet now)

Oh well (I'll stay)

Oh (so quiet now)

Swallowing my pride

You're out the door

So I'll spare you all my emotions this time, this time

Now that you might die

I find it selfish to pain you with wanting closure

'Cause it's closed, I know
