Savior Complex

Always running just to save you, even if it breaks my routine
I bleed out in every attempt while you stay pristine
I hold you up when you fall, you don’t notice I'm cracked
I'm the hero I created for you, and I get lost in this hell

I don't want you to drown, but I can’t be your altar
Don’t judge me for your burdens, I've also learnt how to bleed

I drain myself to fill your sky
But now I fade and don't know why
Saving you has hollowed me
A savior breaking slowly
My savior complex is breaking me quietly
My savior complex is killing me slowly, slowly
My savior complex is killing me slowly, slowly

I tried to be your paracetamol, your stitches, your rescue
But with every scar I was losing where I stand
Don’t ask me to save myself with your hands around my throat
Or to pay for your failures when you’re seeking comfort
I lost my shine, I’ve stared into the void
I'm not responsible for what you carry inside my voice
I'm not your endless patient, nor your temple, nor your cross
If you love me till you drown, what’s the point of being ok?

I drain myself to fill your sky
But now I fade and don't know why
Saving you has hollowed me
A savior breaking slowly
My savior complex is breaking me quietly
My savior complex is killing me slowly, slowly
My savior complex is killing me slowly, slowly

And even if I want to rescue you
Don’t save me at this cost
Because in the end, without noticing We completely broke apart
