Letra de Tests on my heart

If they did tests on my heart
I think that maybe they would start believing
All the stories that i tell them
Like how sometimes i can barely breathe
For no apparent reason other than i thought some bad thoughts
These nerves are falling apart
And my fingernails stay short
I keep telling myself "you´ve got to get over yourself"

I don´t want you to save me
´cause what if you did, you´d succeed
And then you would get bored and leave
I´d be back at square one
And that is such a bad place to begin

We sent all of our sins into the sea
And we set it on fire, we´re an island now
I don´t know if i can take the pressure it creates
To be a self-sustaining industry
So we´ll tell ourselves we´ve got what it takes
And all we need is a little time to dry off

I don´t want you to save me
´cause what if you did, you´d succeed
And you would leave
I´d be back at square one
And that is such a bad place to begin
