Not Your Savior

Unlucky seventeen
 Already handed plans for the future
 Glamour obsessed, told how to dress
 And shown how to think
 And I don't have a job
 But I can show you how to be a slob
 So many days, wasted and glazed
 Sometimes I laugh out loud as I think about
 You asking me "Please can you help?"
 Can't help myself
 I'm not your saviour
 I'm not who you want me to be
 A cowardly mistake I've made so many times before
 Refusing to break
 Cut my losses ties them with you
 Like a good boy I'll pretend
 And promise not to do it again
 Do you remember when
 Life was so simple and permanent?
 Everyone's changed
 Everyone's cool
 Everyone sucks but I can't seem to complain
 Exciting and new is just not there
 You're getting scared
 I'm not your saviour
 Never thought I was anyway
 I'm a void with empty promises that backs out late
 Never said I'd change
 Taking back the words that we spoke
 Like a fuel tank running dry
 You'll believe it when I choke
 You'll believe it when I choke
