Story Behind The Song
Written on the acoustic guitar, I wanted a production that would suit the lyric theme. Long-time collaborator Corin Anderson added his production magic to create a heavy, industrial sound, whilst Gus Harrower provides the compelling vocal.

Lyrics
Outside, the light is fading like a dream
We'll find, the days are drifting into years
Stop once, stop twice, and listen to my plea
Strong words, no lies, I'll whisper in your ear
Babe, won't you save me from the battlefields, just the same
Babe, won't you save me from the battlefields
Just the way you used to do
Shout out, no doubt, I'm stifling a scream
Lost time, stake out, I'm trembling with fear
Take stock, take sides, the words that you will hear
So low, God knows, the words that brought me near, Oh
Babe, won't you save me from the battlefields, just the same
Babe, won't you save me from the battlefields
Just the way you used to do
Come forward, stand by me
Intensity
Discovered, recovered
Identity Oh
Babe, won't you save me from the battlefields, just the same
Babe, won't you save me from the battlefields, just the same oh
Babe, won't you save me from the battlefields just the same
Babe, won't you save me from the battlefields
Just the way you used to do
