[Verse 1]
You came along at the turn of the leaves
There wasn't anyone checkin' for me
I had my pistol a dozen battles strong
And I loved it like the day was long
I was a poem written in blood in the street
You were a gentle frontal rain from the east
You had a heart a dozen stories tall, you, you had wings

[Chorus]
I saw a savior
I saw an angel
I saw bronze and gold and yellow hues
I was lost in a world that was forgotten, that was used
And I never wanted fame
I never wanted love
I never wanted happiness
I never wanted anything good or bad if I ain't have you
You seen me true

[Verse 2]
You saw the bruises, the blacks and the blues, the lies and the scars
All my mistakes, all the pain, all the rage in my head and my heart (From what I had done)
You saw promise
You saw potential
You saw my future
You saw what I could become if I had you, when we were one
[Chorus]
And I saw a savior
I saw an angel
I saw bronze and gold and yellow hues
I was lost in a world that was forgotten, that was used
And I never wanted fame
I never wanted love
I never wanted happiness
I never wanted anything good or bad if I ain't have you

[Bridge]
I don't see it all (My Persian effigy)
You had to leave us all (In this house of dust)
You went up above (I went down below)
Under the ocean floor (I had to go home)
I don't trust at all in (The place where we're from)
I don't love at all (I bend before god)
And I ask why if I don't crash and I don't burn I don't feel at all
And if I don't fly at all
At least I saw
Once
You

[Chorus]
And I saw a savior
I saw an angel
I saw bronze and gold and yellow hues
I was lost in a world that was forgotten, that was used
I never wanted fame
I never wanted love
I never wanted happiness
I never wanted anything good or bad if I ain't have you
You seen me true
