Sia revealed in an interview with Zach Sang that "Saved My Life" came out of a writing session she did with Dua Lipa.[5][6][7]
Lyrically, the song is about her friend saving her from suicide in 2016.
Written by Sia, frequent collaborator Greg Kurstin and British singer-songwriter Dua Lipa, "Saved My Life" is a pop ballad which features piano, keyboards, bass, drums and guitar played by Kurstin.[2] The track opens up as a piano ballad and slowly builds into a grand track filled with strings and an uptempo beat. Sia's vocal performance on the track was described as "passionate" by mxdwn.[8][9] "Saved My Life" has a length of three minutes and fifty-five seconds.[1]
