I can’t save you I can’t even save me I’m a lost case Running the same old race For a place to land I stayed too long Trying to be your fix Held the door open But I’m bad at this And I’m not the hand You need a map I never had A steady voice I can’t pretend I can’t be the one you lean on When I keep slipping at the end I’m not a savior I’m just a cracked-up witness Standing in the hall with my keys And a fistful of bad decisions You don’t need me to be holy You don’t need me to be brave I can love you in the wreckage But I can’t be the thing that saves I can’t save you I can’t even save me I’ve been chasing exits With my name on the screen Trying to be enough You see the doubt Hanging off my sleeve I’ve got a lot of wants And not much I can keep No backup plan to trust You need more than what I’ve got More than a promise I can bend I can’t be the one you cling to When I can’t hold myself up then I’m not a savior I’m just a cracked-up witness Standing in the hall with my keys And a fistful of bad decisions You don’t need me to be holy You don’t need me to be brave I can love you in the wreckage But I can’t be the thing that saves Maybe that’s the hard part Saying it out loud No cape, no rescue No fixing this now Just two people in the dark Learning what we are I’m not a savior I’m just a cracked-up witness Standing in the hall with my keys And a fistful of bad decisions You don’t need me to be holy You don’t need me to be brave I can love you in the wreckage But I can’t be the thing that saves I can’t save you I can’t even save me
