im a great explorer, ive been exploring your mind

i found giant rivers, mountain ranges never climbed

im a great explorer, but now im lost inside your head

i dont have directions just a heavy load instead

Pre Chorus:

you said youd save me if i ever got lost

i said well baby

first you save yourself

then you save the world

but first you save yourself

im a great believer in believing in you

but i dont have a compass,

no plans for pushing through

i guess im pinned down, bad weathers on the way

i need your shelter now but

first you save yourself

then you save the world

first you save yourself

Bridge/Pre Chorus

youre such a brilliant pearl

living in an unforgiving world

and it doesnt help us very much

if you throw the line to someone else

first you save yourself

then you save the world

but first you save yourself
