About Save Us

"Save Us", is a single from UK rock band Feeder. Taken from their compilation The Singles, it is one of the three new songs on the album. The DVD of the single includes footage of when the band visited The Congo, for the charity War Child who supports children living in war-torn countries. The members of Feeder are patrons of the charity themselves. When the single charted, it entered at #34, making it one of the bands smallest hits. However, it helped the compilation album The Singles improve its weekly chart performance for a few weeks bringing it back into the top 20 after a four-week spell holding at #21. Before the release of the single, The Singles was already a platinum-selling album having already spent four weeks in the UK top ten album chart, thus denting its chances to chart high. Also, many high street and online retailers were selling the album for a slightly lower or slightly higher price, with very little difference than the "Save Us" single on all three of its formats.

Face against the ground
Torn, but you can stand
Your will is strong, but you have now
I know you can save us

Faith is on your side
Fears you can't deny
It's burned a hole, right through your soul
But I know you can save us
Save us now

Don't say goodbye
I know you can save us
Don't wave goodbye
But nothing can brake us
Don't say goodbye
I know you can save us
You can bring us back again

Born to be as one
Turn to face the sun
Your will is strong, but you have now
I know you can save us
Save us now

Don't say goodbye
I know you can save us
Don't wave goodbye
But nothing can brake us
Don't say goodbye
I know you can save us
You can bring us back again
You can bring us back again

Face against the ground
Torn, but you can stand
Your will is strong, but you have now
I know you can save us

Don't say goodbye
I know you can save us
Don't wave goodbye
But nothing can brake us
Don't say goodbye
I know you can save us
You can bring us back again

Don't say goodbye
I know you can save us
Don't wave goodbye
But nothing can brake us
Don't say goodbye
I know you can save us
You can bring us back again
You can bring us back again
