It's Not Me
Lyrics
At this reformatory stage
I'm left out in this cage but it's no bother
And as I burn another page
I'm easily assuaged by what I'm after
But when I look into your eyes
The feeling that's contrived; the hate I foster
And so I talk to myself instead of anyone else
I know it's bad for my health but I
Never wanted to
I can't see what it is doing... Doing to me
And now you ask things of me
So far past what I could see
It's what you want me to be but I
Never wanted to
You can't see what it is doing... Doing to me
Your approbatory ways
Make me want to stay and see what's conjured
But when that feeling starts to fade
I find that I am drowning in your water
Oh I tried...
And so I talk to myself instead of anyone else
I know it's bad for my health but I
Never wanted to
I can't see what it is doing... Doing to me
And now you ask things of me
So far past what I could see
It's what you want me to be but I
Never wanted to
You can't see what it is doing... Doing to me
I tried... oh I tried
To be your everything
To be your all
And I tried... oh lord, I tried
To be your end
To be your fall
And so I talk to myself instead of anyone else
I know it's bad for my health but I
Never wanted to
I can't see what it is doing... Doing to me
And now you ask things of me
So far past what I could see
It's what you want me to be but I
Never wanted to
You can't see what it is doing... Doing to me
And I tried, I tried
To be everything you wanted
Everything you wanted
I tried, I tried, I tried
And now I do for myself
That which is good for my health
I put my hate on the shelf 'cause I've
Always wanted to
Now I'm free, now I'm free, now I'm free
Now I'm free!
