Freddy P & the River City Underground - New Messiah

Eleven years, three months, and nineteen days
Spent a long time runnin
Lost in a whiskey haze
Went down the list
Tried all seven deadly sins
I don't know where I go from here
But it's better than where I've been

I'm not the one to save you

I am not your new messiah
I can't save you, I cannot take you higher
I am only made of flesh blood and bone
Can't you see
I've got problems of my own

Now I've been up and I've been beaten down
But I learned real quick to pick myself up off the ground
Oh, I'm no savior, don't live by the golden rule
I've been called a hero and I've been called a fool

I'm not the one to save you

I am not your new messiah
I can't save you, I cannot take you higher
I am only made of flesh blood and bone
Can't you see
I've got problems of my own

The streets are filled with angels
And demons at every turn
Some want to lift you up
Some want to watch you burn
Don't bring me your problems
Cause I can't set you free
Don't look to me for answers
Cause you're no concern to me, yeah

I am not your new messiah
I can't save you, I cannot take you higher
I am only made of flesh blood and bone
Can't you see
Can't you see
I said can't you see
I've got problems of my own
