It's Not Easy Being Me

(album: Long Promised Road - 2021)

Every morning I wake up with that same sad feeling, it's killin me
And every evening there's the same dream I keep on dreaming, again

It follows me wherever I go
And why I guess I'll never know

It's got me down I can't get free
It's not easy being me
The same things haunt me endlessly
It's not easy being me

So I keep smiling, like maybe I can fool somebody
I doubt it though, cause I'm just lying
I know that you can see right through me, again

The man you want just ain't there
You'll never find him anywhere

No I can't be what you want me to be
It's not easy being me
Walk a mile in my shoes, then you'll agree
It's not easy being me

I try to get something happening for us
And I fall flat on my face
And every time I try to take us somewhere new
We wind up in the same old place

I can't face this by myself
I wish I was someone else

Behind this smiling face you see
It's not easy being me
I can't be the man you want me to be
It's not easy being me

I'm stuck here I can't get free
It's not easy being me
The same things haunt me endlessly
It's not easy being me
Behind this smiling face you see
It's not easy being me
I can't be the man you want me to be
It's not easy being me
I'm stuck here I can't get free
It's not easy being me
