Savior Mode

[Verse 1]
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 (You know)
So I’ll let you go

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 onto
I’m in savior mode (You know)
So I’ll let you go

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
If there was a moment to lay it all down
(I’ll stay so quiet now)
It’s now, right now
(I'll stay so quiet now)
But I just can’t see it coming out my mouth
(I can’t let it out, what’s the point of now?)
Oh well
(Keep the feeling down, swallowing again)

[Chorus]
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
