"SAVE ME" - David Byrne



Save me from myself
Save me from people who want to help me
Save me from my parents
Save me from my doctor
Save me from my children
Save me from my success
Save me from high ideals
Save me from my friends
Save me from the glorious future
Save me from good manners
Save me from bargains
Save me from holidays
Save me from happy endings
Save me from words that heal



Save me from the gift that keeps on giving
Save me from good intentions
Save me from perfect skin
Save me from good teeth
Save me from the real world
Save me from safety



I am floating in a bubble. I can see my house from here.
I am safe from all danger. No worries. No cavities.
I am free from all problems.
I am shinning and spinning.
I am twinkling and sparkling.
I am bursting with flavour.
I am out of reach.
I am timeless and eternal.
I am out of touch.
I am colourless, odourless and without taste.
I am impossible to define.
I am bliss incarnate.
Save me from myself...

(1998)

Era rezar isso todos os dias logo pela fresquinha, mesmo antes do matabicho e do duche.

You really make it feel so easy with your delivery but I find this topic to be honestly a matter that I believe I'd by no means understand. The whole thing just goes over my head because of how intricate and broad it all is.. I am looking forward to your future publishings, I will try to get the dangle of it.

I'm a writer from Paris, France just sent this onto a coworker who was conducting some sort of research on this. And she in fact ordered me lunch simply because I came across it for her... lol. Actually, allow me to paraphrase this.... Thanks for the food... But yeah, thanx for spending some time to write about this subject here on your site.
