My Would-Be Savior
You try and fill my mind with doubt
Say I've forgotten who I am
But maybe you've forgotten how to understand.... so
Have your whispers, I excused myself too soon
Antisocial, maybe yes and maybe you
Two days after the flood begins to settle down
I sit alone in a room full of friends
My would-be savior slips something into my mouth.... for kicks
You live a life without regret
Bend a truth until it breaks
I thought I'd seen you at your best
But my mistake.... so
Have your whispers, I excused myself too soon
Antisocial, maybe yes and maybe you
Two days after the flood begins to settle down
I sit alone in a room full of friends
My would-be savior slips something into my mouth.... for kicks
You're sorry, yes you are
But what do you know?
You'll have to think this through on your own
Tries to play it safe
Wants to be afraid
Cannot do the same
Push it away
You try and fill my mind with doubt
Say I've forgotten who I am
But maybe you've forgotten how to understand.... so
Have your whispers, I excused myself too soon
Antisocial, maybe yes and maybe you
Two days after the flood begins to settle down
I sit alone in a room full of friends
My would-be savior slips something into my mouth.... for kicks
Tries to play it safe
Wants to be afraid
Cannot do the same
Push it away
Say I've forgotten who I am
But maybe you've forgotten how to understand.... so
Have your whispers, I excused myself too soon
Antisocial, maybe yes and maybe you
