Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You want a cape, I keep a mask

Smile like a saint with a shattered past

Hold your hand while I load that match

Pocket full of halos and a heart of ash

You call me when the sky turns red

I answer, but I drag my lead

Say I’m here to pull you from the edge

While I carve my name in the safety net

[Pre-Chorus]

I’m not your shining armor

I’m just your favorite scar

You think I’m running toward ya

I’m driving wrecked, no brakes, too far (yeah)

[Chorus]

I wanna be your hero, but I’m built like the villain

Staring at the fire like I’m finally living

I could save the day

Or let it all burn

I’m praying for forgiveness while I twist and I turn

I wanna hold you close, but I sharpen the knife

If I’m the one who saves you, you won’t survive

I could save the day

Or watch the world burn

(Watch the world burn)

[Verse 2]

I talk like dawn but I walk like dusk

Promise you the truth while I paint in rust

Say I’ll fight the monsters in your head

While I feed ‘em every secret that you ever said

You see a sword in a broken hand

I see a throne in the sinking sand

You beg me, “Be better than the man I’ve known”

But I only feel right on a smoking throne

[Pre-Chorus]

You think I’m built for battle

I’m wired for collapse

I’m the calm before the shrapnel

I’m the kiss before the trap

[Chorus]

I wanna be your hero, but I’m built like the villain

Staring at the fire like I’m finally living

I could save the day

Or let it all burn

I’m praying for forgiveness while I twist and I turn

I wanna hold you close, but I sharpen the knife

If I’m the one who saves you, you won’t survive

I could save the day

Or watch the world burn

(Watch the world burn)

[Bridge]

[Music drops to eerie, palm-muted guitars]

I hear you calling my name

Like I’m some last-chance saint

But every time I touch the flame

I write my sins in gasoline

Tell me, do you want the truth?

Or the costume and the pose?

‘Cause if I pull you from this roof

I’ll light the stairs below

[Chorus]

I wanna be your hero, but I’m built like the villain

Staring at the fire like I’m finally living

I could save the day

Or let it all burn

I’m praying for forgiveness while I twist and I turn

I wanna hold you close, but I sharpen the knife

If I’m the one who saves you, you won’t survive

I could save the day

Or watch the world burn

(Watch it all burn, yeah)

[Outro]

So if I run into the flames

Don’t call it brave, call it what it is

I’m not saving anyone

I’m just burning with the rest of this (burn)
