I Wish I Wasn't Me

(album: House On A Hill - 2023)

Quiet please can someone turn my head down
Can't sleep got the rhythm too loud
I'm barely keeping breath inside my body
Screaming to keep the darkness out

But the monsters knock and I let them in
Fear and doubt are my closest friends

But let's give em show
Bring out the marching band
Hoping that no one can see
When the curtains are closed
I'm alone in an empty room
Wishing that I wasn't me

'Cause sometimes
I wish I wasn't me
I wish I wasn't me

Listen a symphony of sadness
Playing softly in the corners of my mind
See I'm building these walls of validation
Too high for me to even climb

But the monsters knock and I let them in
'Cause fear and doubt are my closest friends

But let's give em show
Bring out the marching band
Hoping that no one can see
When the curtains are closed
I'm alone in an empty room
Wishing that I wasn't me

'Cause sometimes I wish I wasn't me
I wish I wasn't me
