pillar Songtext
von Amy Allen

This isn′t a feeling I can shake
This isn't a spark that I can stomp out
On the pavement
I′m just saying

This isn't a cycle I can break
This isn't a one-off, savior complex
Situation
I′m just saying

It all gets built around it
All falls down without it
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
Looking for a solid ground

And I haven′t found it
'Cause I′m keeping you from drowning
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
But I don't wanna hold you now


Maybe if I step to the right it won′t crumble
Entertain the thought, then I double down
Got my dads eyes, but I'm my mother′s daughter
When someone's in trouble

This isn't a pattern I can break
This isn′t a one-off, savior complex situation

It all gets built around it (gets built around it)
All falls down without it (all falls down without it)
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
Looking for a solid ground

And I haven′t found it
'Cause I′m keeping you from drowning
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
But I don't wanna hold you now

Each tear leaves a crack
Closer to a full collapse
Thought that I should tell you that
Tell you that
Each tear leaves a crack
I was never meant to last


Oh, but it all gets built around it
All falls down without it (all falls down without it)
I was born to be a pillar (oh)
Always been a giver (oh)
Looking for a solid ground (looking for a solid ground)

And I haven′t found it
'Cause I′m keeping you from drowning (keeping you from drowning)
I was born to be a pillar
Always been a giver
But I don't wanna hold you now
