I can’t be your salvation,
I’ll never be your absolution,
I’m broken and torn beyond recognition.
We’re both human and we need to be free.
How can I save you if I can’t save me?
I cause your retribution,
Without me you’ll find a solution,
But together we walk the path of destruction.
Let us pretend that we don’t need each other
It’s better to be set apart than stuck together.
I can’t be alone,
But with people I fail.
Set apart, yet all the same.
Tell me the answers,
Ask no questions,
Free my head from this pain.
I can’t start the emancipation,
Can’t create my own liberation,
I was crushed by my own belief in you.
