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 believeNow 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 someoneIt'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 breatheIt'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 elseYour turn the world your way
And you lose the truth within your lies
But the feeling that you crave
Money never buysAll the warnings come too late
And your body starts to scream
And if you think you see me in your dreamsIt'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 breatheNo, it's not me, I don't wanna be
And now the truth cuts like a razor
You better look for someone elseWhen 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, noThey gave you everything when you were young
You threw it all away when you were done
You pray you found that chosen someoneBut 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 razorNo, 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
