Salvation Song

Lyrics

And if you take my heart
 Don't leave the smallest part
 I've no need to live if you're to come up gone
 And as my life turns to a song
 And if and when I treat you wrong
 No I never want to hurt our family
 ♪
 And I would give up everything
 No this is not just about me
 And I don't know a plainer way to say it Babe
 And they may pay us off in fame
 Though that is not why we came
 And I know well and good that won't heal our hearts
 We came for salvation
 We came for family
 We came for all that's good that's how we'll walk away
 We came to break the bad
 We came to cheer the sad
 We came to leave behind the world a better way
 Now if I'm walkin' through the rain
 And I hear you call my name
 I will break into a run without a pause
 And if your love laughs at your dreams
 Well it's not as bad as it seems
 Either way one of them has got to go
 And if you take of my soul
 You can still leave it whole
 With the pieces of you own you leave behind
 We came for salvation
 We came for family
 We came for all that's good that's how we'll walk away
 We came to break the bad
 We came to cheer the sad
 We came to leave behind the world a better way
 And I would give up everything
 And if you were to come up clean
 And see you shine so bright in a world of woe
 And they may pay us off in fame
 But that is not why we came
 And if it compromises truth then we will go
 We came for salvation
 We came for family
 We came for all that's good that's how we'll walk away
 We came to break the bad
 We came to cheer the sad
 We came to leave behind the world a better way
