Sad Savior - Taking Back Sunday

Skin against skin

Covering bone

The body you’re in is aggressively slim

Yeah, you earn the clothes you put on it

They cover up where you’ve been

Leave those scars at home

Let them slide down the length

Of your spine

'Cross your knees

And down to your feet

They slow our momentum

Each time you’re reminded they’re there

You don’t have to pretend to be an orphan anymore

You don’t have to pretend to be important anymore

That brutal youth

Exhumed and removed

Entombed in a box

Cached 'cross your room

It slows our momentum

Each time I’m reminded it’s there

Your anxious tongue slurs cautious words

Yeah, it’s gotten so used

To being misunderstood

You do your best to control it

Remind yourself that you care

You don’t have to pretend to be an orphan anymore

You don’t have to pretend to be important anymore

Hey (Hey)

Sad savior (savior)

You don’t have to pretend to be an orphan anymore

Never not ever again

Is what you swore the last time this happened

Never not ever

Are you gonna settle for those bastards

Never not ever again

No never (not ever)

No never (not ever)

Never not ever again

Is what you swore (swore)

You don’t have to pretend to be an orphan anymore

You don’t have to pretend to be important anymore

Hey (Hey)

Sad savior (savior)

You don’t have to pretend to be an orphan

Not important anymore
