You told me I had something special, little did you know
I'm the one who's been calling on the pay phone, staring straight through your window
Well, I can't tell if when your speaking
you're telling me the truth
but I'm conclusive on this one thing
I know that I believe you
Oh, obsession, you've got me by the throat
and I know that you might not ever let me go
How can we save ourselves from the safe place
How can we save ourselves from the safe place
You told me I had something left to live for, little did I know
you said you saw me every night I sat there, and that I helped you make it through
You said I always called at the perfect time, with the trigger in your hand
the other hand weighed down with bullets
I offered reasons to save them
