Useless Savior Complex

When I was 5, I dropped a glass in the sink
I cut my hands trying to reconstruct it
Guess it's no surprise I did the same thing
I tried to gather the pieces of us but it left me bleeding

As if I could be the hero that saves us from crashing and burning
When you didn't want to be saved at all

Now all I'm left with
Is a useless savior complex
Always fixate on what I can't fix
Seems impossible to make any sense of it
Now I wanna lose it
This useless savior complex
There's always someone I'm looking to save
When I can't even save myself
Save myself

Hindsight, we were 10 out of 10 codependent
Built my life around you
Didn't know what to do when it ended

Moved out of the country in half a sec
Stole your car before I left
Cause you moved on and I took all the impact

As if I could be the hero that saves us from crashing and burning
When you didn't want to be saved at all

Now all I'm left with
Is a useless savior complex
Always fixate on what I can't fix
Seems impossible to make any sense of it
Now I wanna lose it
This useless savior complex
There's always someone I'm looking to save
When I can't even save myself
Save myself

I always put you first
Even when I get hurt
That's not what I deserve
That's not what I deserve

I always put you first
Even when I get hurt
That's not what I deserve
That's not what I deserve
Why do I put you first?

Now all I'm left with
Is a useless savior complex
Always fixate on what I can't fix
Seems impossible to make any sense of it
Now I wanna lose it
This useless savior complex
There's always someone I'm looking to save
When I can't even save myself
Save myself
