Save Me may refer to:
"Save Me" is a song by American alternative rock band Remy Zero. Taken from their album The Golden Hum, it reached #27 on the United States Billboard Modern Rock Charts, and acted as the theme song for the Superman-based television series Smallville.
The song was featured as the opening song on the Smallville compilation CD: Smallville: The Talon Mix (2003). The Season 1 finale, titled "Tempest", features Remy Zero appearing at a high school dance and performing "Save Me" and "Perfect Memory (I'll Remember You)".
The music video for "Save Me", directed by Phil Harder, was filmed in Minneapolis, Minnesota and features clips of downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota State Fairgrounds and of the bridges along the Mississippi River, including the I-35W Mississippi River bridge which collapsed in August 2007. In the music video, Cinjun Tate is different from everyone else. Everyone around him walks in reverse as well as the cars. The band performs inside a giant room with background projections of unrelated images. In one case, there is a lizard. In the end, everyone who walks backwards is stopped. Tate looks around the surrounding. He later shrugs, as he is walking backwards too as everyone else is while the music video fades to black.
Christopher Keith Irvine (born November 9, 1970), better known by the ring name Chris Jericho, is a Canadian professional wrestler, musician, media personality, actor, author, and businessman, currently signed to WWE. He also performed for Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), World Championship Wrestling (WCW), and international promotions in Canada, Germany, Japan, and Mexico. Jericho is known for his over-the-top, rock star persona – dubbed "The Ayatollah of Rock 'n' Rolla" – and for a contrasting run as an aloof, manicured villain in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
Jericho has won 30 championships between WWE, WCW, and ECW – the three most prominent American wrestling promotions in the 1990s and early 2000s. He is credited as being the first Undisputed WWF Champion, having unified the World Championship (formerly the WCW Championship) and the WWF Championship by defeating The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin on the same night in 2001. He is also the ninth Triple Crown Champion, as well as the fourth Grand Slam Champion in WWE history. In addition, he was the 2008 Superstar of the Year Slammy Award winner and (along with Big Show as Jeri-Show) won the 2009 Tag Team of the Year Slammy Award – making him the only winner of both Superstar and Tag Team of the Year in WWE history.
You have banished me From the land where I was born Here upon a foreign shore forsaken I have followed you And gone thy way Should I kneel to you When I rise you strike me down Once again a little one you've taken Everywhere I turn it's darker still
What is it Lord that you want And that I am not seeing? What in my innocent prayers Am I failing to say? Never before have I questioned the truth of your being Never once have I dared Never until today
All of a tremble I stand on the edge of confusion Who is to save me If into the darkness I fall? Now that I need more than ever my Lord to be near me Do you hear when I call? Are you there after all?
You have to be there, you have to My life I have placed in thy keep And without you I am drifting on a dark and rising sea You have to be there, you have to Without you I'd drown in the deep Too far, too far from land The waters drag me down I reach for your hand
Who when I die will throw open his arms to receive me? Who will believe me and take me into his embrace? And when I go to my rest, who will watch me and wake me? When my time comes at last, will you grant me your grace? I am so small of this Earth, I am nothing without you Daring to doubt you at all turns a knife in my heart Little by little I'm losing my way in the shadows I am losing my home and the world fall apart
You do have to be there, you have to My life I have placed in thy keep And without you I am drifting on a dark and rising sea You have to be there, you have to Without you I'd drown in the deep Too far, too far from land The waters drag me down I reach for your hand
And without you I am drifting on a dark and rising sea You have to be there, you have to Without you I'd drown in the deep Too far, too far from land The waters drag me down I reach for your hand
