Robert Vincent - If You Were You Lyrics

There's a need in you to be the only person in the room
A stifling reflection of what it is, you have become
There's a sadness in your eyes
As another part of your heart dies
It must be lonely man

Your coven of believers, pushed you to the edge
correct in theiryour assumption, there the will to your command
Is your finger pushing down, on yours and their demise?
It must be heavy man

If only for a while, you took a back seat
Let somebody else hold the light
It shows no shame, to let your guard down
If only for a while you were you.

The sight of your own reflection must bring bile to your throat
if you sought your own redemption, would your ego learn to cope
Your personality dictates that you must rant and you must rage
Until you get your way

I'm no religious man, but I can call someone who is,
Your devilment is destroying you, they will do all that they can
Your silver and your gold
Will only keep you feeling cold until it buries you

Life's a short fuse, don't burn out.
There's a door and a light
That you will lose, if you fight
Or you can welcome it.
