lyrics

you’re quick to respond

if it’s a matter of hinderance

i’ve checked upon the past,

it’s there and it’s evident

that if it’s not about to carry

a bundle of guilt

then it’s a bad thing

to say to me

i can’t imagine

that you’re favoring

authenticity

so you say you’re gonna

So you say you’re gonna “save me”?

Go to the light and help me be seen?

But I never wanted you to fix me

Cause this was more for you

Not what i wanted to do

But you keep saying that you’ll “save me”

An empty promise just passes by

And i know you hate to see me cry

Why does it have to be a bad thing?

you only respond so you can make amends

for the moment

the stakes for you solely surrounded

by pity

So you say you’re gonna “save me”?

Go to the light and help me be seen?

But I never wanted you to fix me

Cause this was more for you

Not what i wanted to do

But you keep saying that you’ll “save me”

An empty promise just passes by

And i know you hate to see me cry

Why does it have to be a bad thing?

driven out of fidelity

through guilt

it was out of the picture as soon

as you expected for capes and a toolbox

to fix you.

is a promise

still empty if your

reciprocity’s present in small ways?

Yes

So you say you’re gonna “save me”?

Go to the light and help me be seen?

But I never wanted you to fix me

Cause this was more for you

Not what i wanted to do

But you keep saying that you’ll “save me”

An empty promise just passes by

And i know you hate to see me cry

Why does it have to be a bad thing?

[a clearly vapid attempt to make amends, coming off more as pity rather than a genuine plea for forgiveness

Inevitably condescending and pointless,

All in a shallow endeavor to absolve one's self of guilt

Episodic bursts of kindness and charity don’t free one from culpability

forgiveness is not owed

forgiveness is earned
