"Heroin(e)" lyrics

I'm not your heroine

I'm not the person you knew yesterday
I've been used, abused along the way
This is the side of me you pierced with pain
These are the hands that couldn't hold your shame

I tried to hold on
Till I realized

I can't save you
No, I can't change you now
Save your own skin
I'm not your heroine
I can't save you
Now break these chains yourself
Save your own skin
I'm not your heroine

I'm not your heroine

You tried to make me take your pain away
You tried enlisting me to be your saving grace
I'm not responsible for your mistakes
There's nothing I can do and you're to blame

I tried to hold on
Slipping further with time
I tried to hold on
Till I realized

I can't save you
No, I can't change you now
Save your own skin
I'm not your heroine
I can't save you
Now break these chains yourself
Save your own skin
I'm not your heroine

I tried a million ways
I tried to save the day
I tried a thousand more
To try to walk away
I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried

I can't save you
No, I can't change you now
Save your own skin
I'm not your heroine
I can't save you
No, I can't change you now
Save your own skin
I'm not your heroine
I can't save you
Now break these chains yourself
Save your own skin
I'm not your heroine

I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried
I tried, I tried

I'm not your heroine
