[Verse 1]

No, it's nothing new

I see angels and devils and heaven and hell

When I look at you

I try to escape but your lies are more real to me

Than the truth

That's how it's always been


[Verse 2]

Now you're begging me

'Cause your mind is a cage and you say I'm the one

Who can set you free

So wrapped up in your pain that you can't see the chains

That are binding me

I've got demons of my own


[Chorus]

I'm not your savior

I'm just trying to keep my head above the water

I won't sacrifice myself to make you stronger

When I know you'd never do the same for me

Save yourself and finally let me breathe


[Verse 3]

You're unsatisfied

So you wave your mistakes right in front of my face

Like you think they're mine

You won't take the blame but somehow still expect

Me to sympathize

I can't let you bring me down


[Chorus]

I'm not your savior

I'm just trying to keep my head above the water

I won't sacrifice myself to make you stronger

When I know you'd never do the same for me

Save yourself and finally let me breathe


[Bridge]

You buried yourself so far in the ground

I offered a hand to pull you back out

But your misery just wanted company

I'm not your savior

I'm not your savior

No, not this time


[Chorus]

I'm not your savior

I'm just trying to keep my head above the water

I won't sacrifice myself to make you stronger

When I know you'd never do the same for me

Save yourself and finally let me breathe
