“Come, my love, the stage is waiting,
Be the one to save my saving grace.”
St. Vincent (musician)
(1982) American singer-songwriter
"Jesus Saves, I Spend"
Marry Me (2007)
Poems and Ballads (1866-89), The Triumph of Time
Context: The loves and hours of the life of a man,
They are swift and sad, being born of the sea.
Hours that rejoice and regret for a span,
Born with a man's breath, mortal as he;
Loves that are lost ere they come to birth,
Weeds of the wave, without fruit upon earth.
I lose what I long for, save what I can,
My love, my love, and no love for me!
Aimee Mann
(1960) American indie rock singer-songwriter (born 1960)
"Save Me"
Song lyrics, Magnolia: Music from the Motion Picture (1999)
Context: You struck me dumb, Like radium
Like Peter Pan, or Superman,
You have come... to save me.
Come on and save me...
Why don't you save me?
If you could save me,
From the ranks of the freaks,
Who suspect they could never love anyone,
Except the freaks,
Who suspect they could never love anyone,
Except the freaks,
Who could never love anyone.
Simone de Beauvoir
(1908–1986) French writer, intellectual, existentialist philosopher, political activist, feminist, and social theorist
