Nothing Like Me

(album: White Flag - 2019)

I don't wanna be you
But I would give it all away
Just to be a little bit better at being myself
'Cause waking naked with a Jane Doe lover
Is always better than losing this fight
I know my message in the bottle will reach home some time

So secretly
We scream ourselves to death
Like sunlight blinds you
When it hides you
So dance with me
Some rooms are vacant in my castle in the sky

So don't pretend you're delusion-free
You're something else
You are not like me
So don't pretend you are able to see
Right through my lies
You are nothing like me
You're not like me
You are nothing like me
You're not like me
You are nothing like me
So don't pretend you are setting me free
You're full of it
You are not like me

You claim you're a treasure hunter
That you see the silver line
Although my name is in the papers
Forgery is still a crime
You claim I am all or nothing
I'll demonstrate that one more time (Listen carefully)
Lick the diamond dust from my shoulders
Find your way to paradise

So secretly
We scream ourselves to death
Like sunlight blinds you, hides you, fights you now
(Don't forget I am the queen now)

So don't pretend you're delusion-free
You're something else
You are not like me
So don't pretend you are able to see
Right through my lies
You are nothing like me
You're not like me
You are nothing like me
You're not like me
You are nothing like me
So don't pretend you are setting me free
You're full of it
You are not like me

I don't wanna be myself
I don't wanna be myself
I don't wanna be myself
Don't pretend you're delusion-free
You're something else
You are not like me

You're not like me
You are nothing like me
You're not like me
You are nothing like me
You're not like me
You are nothing like me
You're not like me
You are nothing like me
So don't pretend you are setting me free
You're full of it
You are not like me
