I always lived my life as though I knew what was in store for me
Never gave a thought to love - just another useless fantasy
Now darkness falls and shadows reach out for my soul
No signs of shelter as the night grows bitter cold
Each step ahead serves to seal my destiny

I need someone to save me
To reach out and take me away
Save me from this world we live in today

Through the years I learned to keep my eyes fixed straight ahead
To set my goals along the lines where this world's values led
If I go on any longer I'll be caught in the chains
My will grows weaker and my spirit's lost it's flame
Each passing night I feel my time ticking away

I need someone to save me
To reach out and take me away
Save me from this world we live in today
