I Can't Be Her Savior Anymore

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

[Verse]

She had a suitcase packed with lies

A smile sharper than a gangster's knife

Her words were a melody so sweet and wrong

She played me like I was her getaway song

[Prechorus]

She whispered dreams I couldn't see

Freedom dressed as destiny

[Chorus]

I was her ticket out

Her golden road

Her easy route

She fed my ego

Starved my doubt

But she never knew what love was about

[Verse 2]

She wore her scars like battle art

But her stories tore me apart

Every tender touch was a careful scheme

Her deceptions danced through my dreams

[Prechorus]

She called it love I called it war

I can't be her savior anymore

[Chorus]

I was her ticket out

Her golden road

Her easy route

She fed my ego

Starved my doubt

But she never knew what love was about

She called it love I called it war

I can't be her savior anymore
