Douwe Bob - Standing Here Helpless

I'm sorry I'm not the one
I'm not your savior
Not strong enough to lean on
And yes I'm shamed of turning my
back and run

But I'm not our father or long lost son
I'm not the one and I'm not a good lover
I'm just a fool

Or when you're drowning
I'm not the lifeline to pull at sea
Hell I'm not free enough myself
to set you free
I'm not your savior
I'm not free You had the time to flee
To places where I'll never be
But somehow you believed in me

Standing here helpless at the end of my arms
Stretched out and look me in the eyes
Oh brother, when you shoot me down
I ate the cake, I burned the flag
I burned it all but what the heck
I'm only temporary, just like you
Just like you, just like you

wipe that smile off a your face
'Cause I can't change ours dreams or get
the dreams you chase
And I can't bear your wild golden cross
'Cause after all you're just a shade on the wall, like all of us
Another shade on the wall, like all of us

Standing here helpless at the end of my arms
Stretched out and look me in the eyes
Oh brother, when you shoot me down
I ate the cake, I burned the flag
I burned it all but what the heck
I'm only temporary, just like you
Just like you, just like you
