'Saviour'

Oh saviour, come find me,
When I'm lost in my own thoughts.
Dear saviour, please guide me,
Through the night, and through the dark.

Because I need you here with me,
When there is nobody else.
And I need you to help me,
To save me from myself.

Well I ain't gonna be your knight in shining armor,
'Cause I can't be there for now and ever more.
I need to feel free, with no responsibility,
I just can't try to save you anymore.

And I know you'll live without me,
You can always find someone else.
Just to help save your life,
Whilst taking theirs yourself.

And I know that I'm no hero,
I do what I can to get by.
I can make a person or two smile,
You don't always need to try.

Well I ain't gonna be your knight in shining armor,
'Cause I can't be there for now and ever more.
I need to feel free, with no responsibility,
I just can't try to save you anymore.

Hey, guess what? You'll be just fine,
Without me there right by your side.
And guess what? It all gets better,
The way things are won't last forever.

Drag yourself out of the gutter,
Stop saying you wanna die.
Stop trying to be so miserable,
And don't you dare to cry.

So stop sucking the life out of everyone you've ever known.
And stop trying to find someone who'll make you their own.

Well I ain't gonna be your knight in shining armor,
'Cause I can't be there for now and ever more.
I need to feel free, with no responsibility,
I just can't try to save you anymore.

You don't need a saviour.

A little song/poem about teenage angst/attention-seeking, and wanting someone to 'save' them from their imaginary problems. Just general stuff that pisses me off. (Just so you know, this isn't meant to be at all insulting to anyone who actually does have mental health problems.)
