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'll 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 defenseless And parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends This ring will help me yet As will you knight in shining armor 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 'Cause I want to decide between survival and bliss And 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 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 But this won't work now the way it once did 'Cause I want to decide between survival and bliss And 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 defenseless And parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends 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 |

If it weren't for your maturity
None of this would have happened If you weren't so wise beyond your years I would've been able to control myself If it weren't for my attention You wouldn't have been successful, and If it weren't for me You would never have amounted to very much Ooh this could be messy, but You don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody, and Overlook this supposed crime We'll fast-forward to a few years later No one knows except the both of us And I have honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this You're essentially an employee And I like you having to depend on me You're a kind of protégé And one day you'll say you learned all you know from me, and I know you depend on me Like a young thing would to a guardian I know how you sexualize me Like a young thing would and I think I like it Ooh this could get messy, but Ooh, you don't seem to mind Ooh, don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime We'll fast-forward to a few years later No one knows except the both of us I've more than honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this What part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept? What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget? What with this distance it seems so obvious? Just make sure you don't tell on me Especially to members of your family We best keep this to ourselves And not tell any members of our inner posse I wish I could tell the world 'Cause you're such a pretty thing when you're done-up properly I might want to marry you one day If you'd watch that weight and keep your firm body Ooh this could be messy Ooh I don't seem to mind Ooh don't go telling everybody And overlook this supposed crime We'll fast-forward to a few years later No one knows except the both of us And I have honored your request for silence And you've washed your hands clean of this |
