You tell me what you want
And you try to tell me what I need
But your smile can never sell me
What I don't believe

Now the gun is in your hand
And all the words are on your tongue
They gave you everything when you were young
You threw it all away when you were done
You pray you found that chosen someone

It's not me, I don't wanna be
I'm not the cure, I'm not your savior
Now there's danger every second that you breathe

It's not me, I don't wanna be
And now the truth cuts like a razor
You're gonna have to save yourself
You better look for someone else

Your turn the world your way
And you lose the truth within your lies
But the feeling that you crave
Money never buys

All the warnings come too late
And your body starts to scream
And if you think you see me in your dreams

It's not me, I don't wanna be
I'm not the cure, I'm not your savior
Now there's danger every second that you breathe

No, it's not me, I don't wanna be
And now the truth cuts like a razor
You better look for someone else

When you run in a world full of trouble
Trouble always runs to you anyway
Now the damage is done and you want me to stay
But it's not me, no, no, no

They gave you everything when you were young
You threw it all away when you were done
You pray you found that chosen someone

But it's not me, I don't wanna be
I'm not the cure, I'm not your savior
It's not me, I don't wanna be
And now the truth cuts like a razor

No, it's not me, I don't wanna be
I'm not the cure, I'm not your savior
You're gonna have to save yourself
You better look for someone else, 'cause it's not me
