This isn't a feeling I can shake
This isn't a spark that I can stomp out
On the pavement
I'm just saying
This isn't a cycle I can break
This isn't a 1 off, savior complex situation
I'm just saying
It all gets built around it
All falls down without it
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
Looking for solid ground
And I haven't found it
Cuz I'm keeping you from drowning
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
But I don't wanna hold you now
Maybe if I step to the right
It won't crumble
Entertain the thought then I double down
Got my dads eyes but I'm my mothers daughter when someone's in trouble
This isn't pattern I can break
This isn't a 1 off, savior complex situation
It all gets built around it
All falls down without it
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
Looking for solid ground
And I haven't found it
Cuz I'm keeping you from drowning
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
But I don't wanna hold you now
Each tear leaves a crack
Closer to a full collapse
Thought that I should tell you that
Tell u that
Each tear leaves a crack
I was never meant to last
Oh, but
It all gets built around it
All falls down without it
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
Looking for solid ground
And I haven't found it
Cuz I'm keeping you from drowning
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
But I don't wanna hold you now"
