Save Me” by Aimee Mann

You look like… a per­fect fit,
For a girl in need… of a tourni­quette.
But can you save me?
Come on and save me…
If you could save me,
From the ranks of the freaks,
Who sus­pect they could never love anyone.

'Cause I can tell… you know what it's like.
A long farewell… of the hunger strike.
But can you save me?
Come on and save me…
If you could save me,
From the ranks of the freaks,
Who sus­pect they could never love anyone.

It struck me down, a Grey­hound,
Like Peter Pan, or Super­man,
You have come… to save me.
Come on and save me…
If you could save me,
From the ranks of the freaks,
Who sus­pect they could never love any­one,
Except the freaks,
Who sus­pect they could never love any­one,
But the freaks,
Who sus­pect they could never love anyone.

Come on and save me…
Why don't you save me?
If you could save me,
From the ranks of the freaks,
Who sus­pect they could never love any­one,
Except the freaks,
Who sus­pect they could never love any­one,
Except the freaks,
Who could never love anyone.
