You put me up on a pedestal
 I've got nowhere to go but down
 You expect the impossible
 And it's too much to carry around

 Well, you tell me I'm beautiful
 It feels empty and I don't know why
 But it seems that you're certainly
 Something I'm not gonna find

 I'm not your anchor, so don't hold on
 I'm not the answer, you got me wrong
 I'm not your savior, save your energy
 To find out who you are, yeah who you are without me

 Wide awake lying next to you
 Being careful to get the words right
 See it hurt me to tell you this
 But it kills me to keep it inside

 And I'm at one with the present tense
 Making plans is overrated to me
 And I don't speak in guarantees
 Or at least not the kind that you need

 I'm not your anchor, so don't hold on
 I'm not the answer, you got me wrong
 I'm not your savior, save your energy
 To find out who you are, yeah who you are without me

 Well, I still believe in happy endings
 But this just isn't where I wanna spend mine
 I'll be leaving now I've said it

 I'm not your anchor, so don't hold on
 I'm not the answer, you got me wrong
 I'm not your savior, save your energy
 And find out who you are

 I'm not a mirror, look inside yourself
 I'm not a hero, you know too well
 I'm not your savior, save your energy
 To find out who you are, yeah who you are without me
 Who you are without me
