Lyrics

[Verse 1] I found you broken, so I stayed I wrapped my words in silk and grace But silence isn’t healing And kindness isn’t fate You can’t fix a soul That wants to break [Verse 2] You saw in me a place to fall But never thought to build a wall You gave your ghosts a bedroom And prayed that they’d behave But love is not a fire escape [Chorus] Love doesn’t save anyone It isn’t a cure, it’s a song unsung A soft refrain for hearts that run But it can’t hold back the flood Love doesn’t save anyone No, not even us [Verse 3] You said I lit the only light But even stars can’t halt the night I watched you drift with open eyes And still, I let you go Because love can’t fight What you won’t show [Chorus] Love doesn’t save anyone It isn’t a shield, it’s a loaded gun A whisper in the dark that stuns But it can’t rewrite the past Love doesn’t save anyone Not when the cracks come fast [Bridge] You wanted rescue I gave my hand But broken hearts don’t understand That love’s not chains It’s not demand It’s just a touch You have to stand [Final Chorus] Love doesn’t save anyone It’s not a war that can be won We pass through flames We come undone But still, I loved you hard Even when I knew It wouldn’t be enough [Outro] So don’t say I didn’t try But love was never meant To save a life
