I'll Never Be

[Verse 1:] I had the perfect alibi I figured out just how to tell a lie It wasn't my intention to make you cry But I'll take you there, I don't even care You say my heart is cold I wasn't always this way I wasn't always this way But right now I just have to go Wish that I could stay I wish that I could stay [Hook:] I'll never be I'll never be The hero you think I am No, I can't be that man I'll never be I'll never be The saviour you're looking for Wish I could give you more [Verse 2:] Your back up on your own And you sleep by the phone When you expect my call The phone won't ring at all Because I'm on the floor Didn't expect it to be so far The world's infatuated with me Calling me a star No matter where I am Wish you could be around me But can we really guarantee We'll see another day I know this isn't perfect But what on this earth is? (Come on) [Hook:] [Verse 3:] When I came back on the radar I gave you my oath Just like I'm on trial So take me off the pedestal You can't deny That no vision's just eye for an eye What we used to have, yeah Used to inspire Whether it was short-term or for a while I know why you're mine We carry too much luggage but we never fly Take the shit out the overhead bin Roll with the punches, I take it on the chin
