Savior (I Knew You Wouldn't Love Me).

this skin stretches so I tear it off

and lay it at your feet

I dig around inside myself

have my own personal meet and greet

see I knew you wouldn’t love me

if I let you see right through

so I painted my skin and dyed my hair

so you’d never find the truth

I’m not your savior

get off your knees

I’m not perfect

and I never promised to be

I’m not your protector

this sword is too big

this boy in shining armor

outgrew clothing fit for your king

no, I’m not your savior

no matter how much I’d like to be

I stifle all my uniqueness

and hide among the sheep

I’m afraid if you see my true colors

your wolf would destroy me

see I knew you wouldn’t love me

if I held you in my arms

so I bound my hands with unspoken words

to shelter you from harm

I’m not your savior

get off your knees

I’m not perfect

and I never promised to be

I’m not your protector

this sword is too big

this boy in shining armor

outgrew clothing fit for your king

no, I’m not your savior

no matter how much I’d like to be

and you say I can be anything I want to be

but I don’t know what I want to be

when you’re standing over me

see I knew you wouldn’t love me

if I let you see right through

oh I knew you wouldn’t love me

if I told you the truth

I’m not your savior

get off your knees

I’m not perfect

and I never promised to be

I’m not your protector

this sword is too big

this boy in shining armor

outgrew clothing fit for your king

no, I’m not your savior

no matter how much I’d like to be

no matter how much I’d like to be

no matter how much I’d like to be

no matter how much I’d like to be
