“‘Save Us’ is a song about two people desiring to be together, even when they don’t know how to be there for each other. It’s a song that represents the messiness and complexities of love and relationships. It highlights how oftentimes one person is more committed to (or interested in) the relationship than the other, and unfortunately, that is not enough to save it.”
