Not the Doctor - Acoustic

Lyrics

I don't wanna be the filler if the void is solely yours
 I don't wanna be your glass of single malt whiskey
 Hidden in the bottom drawer and
 I don't want to be a bandage if the wound is not mine
 Lend me some fresh air, ah
 I don't wanna be adored for what I merely represent to you
 An' I don't wanna be your babysitter, you're a very big boy now
 I don't wanna be your mother
 I didn't carry you in my womb for nine months
 Show me the back door
 Visitin' hours are nine to five and if I show up at ten past six
 Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in
 And oh mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
 You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor
 Oh, oh am not the, oh
 I don't wanna be the sweeper of the eggshells that you walk upon
 And I don't wanna be your other half I believe that one and one make two
 I don't wanna be your food or the light from the fridge
 On your face at midnight, hey what are you hungry for?
 I don't wanna be the glue that holds your pieces together
 I don't wanna be your idol
 See this pedestal is high and I'm afraid of heights
 I don't wanna be lived through a vicarious occasion
 Please open the window
 Visitin' hours are nine to five and if I show up at ten past six
 Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in
 And oh mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
 You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor
 Oh, oh I am not the, oh
 I don't wanna live on someday when my motto is last week
 And I, I don't wanna be responsible for your fractured heart
 And it's wounded beat
 An' I don't wanna be a substitute for the smoke you've been inhalin'
 Well, what do you think me, what do you think me for?
 Visitin' hours are nine to five and if I show up at ten past six
 Well I already know that you'd find some way to sneak me in
 And oh mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
 You see it's too much to ask for and I am not the doctor
 Oh, oh I am not the, I
