Who You Are Without Me - Kate Voegele

Put me up on a pedestal

I’ve got nowhere to go but down

You expect the impossible

And it’s too much to carry around

Well you tell me I’m beautiful

It feels empty and I don’t know why

But it seems that you’re searching me

For something you’re not gonna find

I’m not your anchor

So don’t hold on

I’m not the answer

You’ve got me wrong

I’m not your savior

Save your energy

To find out who you are, yeah who you are without me

Wide awake lying next to you

Being careful to get the words right

See it hurts me to tell you this

But it kills me to keep it inside

And I’m in love with the present tense

Making plans is overrated to me

And I don’t speak in guarantees

Or at least not the kind that you need

Well I still believe in happy endings

But this just isn’t where I wanna spend mine

I’ll be leaving

Now I’ve said it

I’m not a mirror

Look inside yourself

I’m not a hero

You know too well

I’m not your savior

Save your energy

To find out who you are, yeah who you are without me
