Cornered

Don抰 hold me up to be
Something that I抦 not
I never said I had all the answers
Or that I didn抰 make mistakes
You need someone to believe in
But I抦 the same as you
And I can抰 make the promise
That I抣l never let you down
Why should I sacrifice myself
So you can think that we feel the same
My life, my actions
Are scarred with imperfections
I never asked to be a hero
Don抰 make me play that role
You want someone to look up to
I抦 afraid it isn抰 me
I won抰 be the one to save your soul
Why should I sacrifice myself
So you can think that we feel the same
What happens when I let you down
What makes my words so important
That they stand above the rest
All you抳e done is isolate me
And make me feel out of place
Is it the real me, that you want to know
Or who you think I should be
These walls that stand between us
Are walls that don抰 belong
All you抳e done is separate us
Is that really what you want
