Something That I'm Not

(album: Demo 2002 EP - 2002)

Bide your time
And consider that
Whatever you need now
Is whatever you needed to pretend
Whenever the same four words
Fall again on my hand
I start to shake
And tell myself
That this is what it takes
To be that man

[Chorus:]
And I'm starting to remind myself
Of something I'm not
And it's starting to remind me that
I can never change
The way that I am

Pulling back
Remit your false impressions
That never helped you to climb
The taller ladders
But I never feel that right
Or will be ever again
I've started and stopped
And tell myself
That never again
Will I understand

[Chorus]

I never thought that
I would take this bet
Am I living now?
It's too insane
I always thought
I'm here
To follow yours
And that I'd
Take you down
And into my peers
Bring it out
It might exist
Baby the
Simpleness
And tough kids
I always thought I would
Overcome
And live to see the
Tragic fate

[Chorus]

The way that I
The way that I
The way that I am
