Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And we're the same, have it out down in the mud
Glance at your name written out in your blood
I might take it upon myself
Yearning for a restless hell
[Chorus]
Call me an angel in the background singing, "I'm not the one"
Not your haven at the bottom or some miserable companion
I might beam with empty virtue, but I'm a feather blowing in your storm
Garbage, weather-worn
[Verse 2]
I take my aim at a girl suffering
We share a name and a need to not be seen
She might take it personally
Put on airs, undercut me
[Chorus]
So if I call you up tomorrow screaming, "I'm not the one"
To be privy to your fiction, help you get your shit together
I'm a fool in angel's clothing, I'm a glutton for being let down
But I can't help you, I can't stick around
[Outro]
Said I don't want nothing to do with it, yeah, I'm not the one
To keep betting against the odds, yeah, it won't go my way forever
If I held you any tighter, call me terrified, call me unprepared
You might be stupid, but you're not scared
