Savior Complex Lyrics by Nailed Shut
Creating an illusion
To bring this place back to life
Smoke and mirrors
Masquerading ongoing strife
Head’s in the sand
If you think you’ll make a difference
Self-infatuation
Serving nothing but your own interests
Paint this coat of
Self-idolatry
Post it up for
Those outside to see
You’re no savior
As you put yourself to be
Distract them with
The glow of novelty
Give them some “culture”
Your own civilizing mission
Hidden gems used for
Your own war of attrition
Plotting erasure
At the top of your docket
Wealth creation
As if it’d ever make it to our pockets
Bring in the sculptures
Replace with “culture”
Leave us picking at scraps like vultures
