You'll rescue me right?
in the exact same way
they never did
I'll be happy right?
when your healing powers
kick in
You'll complete me right?
then my life can
finally begin
I'll be worthy right?
Only when you realize
the gem I am?
But this won't work now
the way it once did
and I won't keep it up
even though I would
love to
Once I know who I'm not
then I know who I am
But I know I won't keep
on playing the victim
these precious illusions
in my head
Did not let me down
when I was defenceless
and parting with them
is like parting with
invisible best friends
This ring will help me yet
as will you knight in
shining armour
This pill will help me yet
as will these boys
gone through like water
But this won't work
as well as the way
it once did
Cuz I want to decide
between survival
and bliss
And I know who I'm not
I still don't know
who I am
But I know I won't keep
on playing the victim
these precious illusions
in my head
Did not let me down
when I was a kid
and parting with them
is like parting with a
childhood best friend
I've spent so long
firmly looking
outside me
I've spent so much
time living
in survival... mode
This won't work now
the way it once did
Cuz I want to decide
between survival
and bliss
Though I know
who I'm not
I still don't know
who I am
But I know I won't keep
on playing the victim
these precious illusions
in my head
Did not let me down
when I was defenceless
and parting with them
is like parting with a
childhood best friend
