I didn't mean to be the fuel in your fire
At least I'm keeping you warm in my arms
You always come to me, come to me crying
I can't sit on the sideline anymore
But I'm honored you think I'm stronger than I am
You paint me as your leader
Even when it's washed away
Even when I say I need ya
When I say, "I'm not okay"
Guess I'll only be your leader
Every single day
It's a burden that I'm bleeding
So I'll cover it in paint
Ooh, it's not mutual, this love
'Cause I'd do anything for ya
But I'm selfish if I'm helpless on the floor
Can't do this anymore
Can't be your leader
I'm problematic, I'm in trouble again
Mess with my friends and I'm gonna have to face ya
But if by magic I'm on the other hand
I'm always left alone, I know I'll be nameless
But I'm honored you think I'm stronger than I am
'Cause you paint me as your leader
Even when it's washed away
Even when I say I need ya
When I say, "I'm not okay"
Guess I'll only be your leader
Every single day
It's a burden that I'm bleeding
So I'll cover it in paint
Ooh, it's not mutual, this love
'Cause I'd do anything for ya
But I'm selfish if I'm helpless on the floor
And I'm so damn close, you know I see the door
I hate to draw a blank on what I'm fighting for
If only you cared for me just a little bit more
You were never ignored
That I'm painted as your leader
Even when it's washed away
Even when I say I need ya
When I say, "I'm not okay"
I'll only be your leader
Every single day
It's a burden that I'm bleeding
So I'll cover it in paint
Ooh, it's not mutual, this love
'Cause I'd do anything for ya
But I'm selfish if I'm helpless on the floor
Can't do this anymore
Can't be your leader
Can't be your leader
