messiah Lyrics

I've spent years drawn to broken

Blindly thinking love could fix it all

But recently I've learned the flaws in people aren't my fault

And I am not responsible for saving everyone

Love can be a healer, but it's just not my job

To find the broken pieces of people and try to assemble what wasn't my fault

No one asked for fixing, I don't need to take this on

Cause I'm not your savior, I'm no messiah

I think I just kinda need someone to love

And I cannot fix you, so I'll have to fix myself

I'll cross my fingers, pray to God that maybe you'll do so as well

And I will miss you, so I'll have to tell myself

I'll cross my heart and hope to die

This doesn't have to be farewell

Love can be a healer, but it's just not my job

To find the broken pieces of people and try to assemble what wasn't my fault

No one asked for fixing, I don't need to take this on

Cause I'm not your savior, I'm no messiah

I think I just kinda need someone to love

Now it's been weeks since we've spoken

And I've been steady feelin' through it all

Now I can understand it wasn't me who built your walls

And it just isn't possible for me to make them fall

Love can be a healer, but it's just not my job

To find the broken pieces of people and try to assemble what wasn't my fault

No one asked for fixing, I don't need to take this on

Cause I'm not your savior, I'm no messiah

I think I just kinda need someone to love

And you haven't fixed me, I've just hurt enough to see

I can't stay tending to your wounds, neglecting looking after me

And I had tricked me, somehow let myself believe

That I could carry your emotions till I buckled at the knees

Love can be a healer, but it's just not my job

To find the broken pieces of people and try to assemble what wasn't my fault

No one asked for fixing, I don't need to take this on

Cause I'm not your savior, I'm no messiah

I think I just kinda need someone to love
