lyrics

You’re standing on the edge again you’ve got nowhere to go
And the bottom aint down far enough when rock bottom is the goal
No medicine is strong enough when you’re this sick and tired
It all just feels so empty
So uninspired

Be someone else
You wanna be someone else
Let’s face it because you can’t be yourself
Be someone else
You wanna be someone else
Let’s face it because you can’t be yourself

You’re sinking with the ship again you’re trapped under the ice
There aint no point in looking if you can’t play the price
When the person in the mirror is someone you despise
A specter looking back at you and you can’t meet their eyes

Be someone else
You wanna be someone else
Let’s face it because you can’t be yourself
Be someone else
You wanna be someone else
Let’s face it because you can’t be yourself

You wanna be someone else
You wanna be someone else

Be someone else
You wanna be someone else
Let’s face it because you can’t be yourself
Be someone else
You wanna be someone else
Let’s face it because you can’t be yourself
