Barn Burner

We are would-be saviors
Smoke-and-mirror failures
And we all have a plan
Until we get hit in the face
With our useless daydreams
I'm no savior
I'm no savior

I saw a woman fall today
But I pretended not to see
A desperate man reached out to me
Just hid my eyes till he went away
Another simply asked me a question
They just want to be seen
I know I'm guilty
I know I'm guilty
Because I know that's me

I don't hate you
I just feel better
When you're not around
Yeah I see you
Yeah I see you
While I stare at the ground

I don't hate you
I just feel better
When you're not around
Yeah I see you
Yeah I see you
While I stare

I want bullets bouncing off me
Safe from behind the glass
I wish I was deep
But I'm two feet tall
I wish I was stronger
I wish I was better than this
Sadness with a shelf life
I've got empathy until the next light

I don't hate you
I just feel better
When you're not around
Yeah I see you
Yeah I see you
While I stare at the ground

I don't hate you
I just feel better
When you're not around
Yes I see you
Yeah I see you

I've been thinking
That I've been drinking
Too much of my own Kool-Aid
I've been thinking
That I've been drinking
Too many endorphins

I must've left my cape at home
It's buried under my opinions
Yeah, I wish I was deep
But I'm two feet tall

I've got bad posture
I'm, I'm no savior
