Destroyer

You said you needed water
So I built the house on sand
When it sank into the ocean
The blood was on my hands
You left me in a limbo
A catch 22
By saving my own life
Made me the murderer of you

When I know I can claim it as just self-defence
Protecting the illusion of my permanent innocence
Because if guilty was besides the point
It has to be me, I have to be

Your destroyer
I don't wanna, but I have to be
Your destroyer
I don't wanna, but I have to be
Your destroyer
Oh, I have to be, oh, I have to be

A villain of the movie, just a victim of the times
You dress me up and use me
Fit the story you designed
Oh, I yearned for your approval
Until I didn't recognize me either
Two tickets for a funeral
When you blow up the hand that feeds ya

Oh, I can claim it as just self-defence
Protecting the illusion of my permanent innocence
Because if guilty was besides the point
It has to be me, I have to be

Your destroyer
I don't wanna, but I have to be
Your destroyer
I don't wanna, but I have to be
Your destroyer
Oh, I have to be
Your destroyer
