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

For saving my own life made me the murderer of you

And I know

I can't claim it as just self-defence

Protecting the illusion of my permanent innocence

Because who's guilty is 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

The villain of the movie

Just a victim of the times

You dress me up and use me

To fit the story you designed

Oh, I yearned for your approval

Till I didn't recognize me either

Two tickets for a funeral

When you blow up the hand that feeds ya

Oh yeah, I can't claim it as just self-defence

Protecting the illusion of my permanent innocence

Because who's guilty is 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
