"Rescue Me" is the self reflection of a man in need of a turn around. It is the story of a fire fighter stuck in a rut, praying for someone or something to come and rescue him from his demons.

Lyrics

Walking down these streets
Sky black with headlights bright
Through the fight like
The truth in the air as his heart cries
Begging on his knees
Fists clinched with the fear cold sight
Of the man who
Brought him the news that cost him his life

It's burning, the fire, yeah what you got, come rescue me.
Come rescue me, yeah yeah, come rescue, come rescue me

From the stone rock
Shots hard with side blocks knock
From the fire light
The smell in the air that burns through the night
Sparks fly with glowing ash
Window stuck with the wall falling hot
In the stairwell
Water in the sky as the lights go out

It's burning, the fire, yeah what you got, come rescue me.
Come rescue me, yeah yeah, come rescue, come rescue me

I am the only one that you can count on
To pull you out of hostility
But now the tables turning and I'm learning
That this could all be just a dream
Cuz I'm scared of being what I'm becoming
Shame feels like flames burning inside of me
Please stop this world from spinning now I'm begging
For you to come, come rescue me

It's burning, the fire, yeah what you got, come rescue me.
Come rescue me, yeah yeah, come rescue, come rescue me
