Save Myself Lyrics - Ed Sheeran

I gave all my oxygen to people that could breathe 

I gave away my money and now we don't even speak 

I drove miles and miles, but would you do the same for me? 

Oh, honestly? 

Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry upon 

Gave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warm 

They gave me the heartache and in return I gave a song 

It goes on and on 

Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels 

I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills 

And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf 

My farewell 

So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself 

I gave you all my energy and I took away your pain 

'Cause human beings are destined to radiate or dream 

What line do we stand upon 'cause from here looks the same? 

And only scars remain

Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels 

I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills 

And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf 

My farewell 

So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself 

But if don't 

Then I'll go back 

To where I'm rescuing a stranger 

Just because they needed saving just like that 

Oh, I'm here again 

Between the devil and the danger 

But I guess it's just my nature 

My dad was wrong 

'Cause I'm not like my mum 

'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a song 

But it helps 

So before I save someone else 

I've got to save myself 

Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels 

I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills 

And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf 

My farewell 

So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself 

And before I blame someone else, I've got to save myself 

And before I love someone else, I've got to love myself
