Intro: E
E (add 2)
I don't want to be the filler is the void is solely yours
I don't want to be your glass of the single malt whiskey
Hidden in the bottom drawer
I don't want to be a bandage is the wound is not mine
Lend me some fresh air
I don't want to be adored for what I merely represent to you
I don't want to be you babysitter
I didn't carry you in my womb for nine month
Show me the back door
Bb5 C5 D5Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at 10 past 6
Bb5 C5 D5Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in
Bb5 C5 D5Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
Em7 C6 DYou see it's too much to ask and I am not the doctor
E (add 2)
I don't want to be sweeper of the eggshells that you walk upon
I don't want to be your other half I believe that 1 and 1 make 2
I don't want to be your food or the light from the fridge
On your face at midnight
Hey what are you hungry for?
I don't want to be the glue that holds your pieces together
I don't want to be you idol
See this pedestal is high and I'm afraid of heights
I don't want to be lived through
A vicarious occasion
Please open the window
Repeat Chorus
I don't want to be live on someday when my motto is last week
I don't want to be responsible for your fractured heart
And its wounded beat
I don't want to be a substitute for the smoke you've been inhaling
What do you thank me
What do you thank me for?
Repeat Chorus
