Rut after rut
Copied pasted
Stuck as a mutt
Talent wasted
They say it looks like, tastes like, feels the same
They say, "You sound like them
But you're not as strong"
They say, "You can't hold up
To those gleaming songs"
Their words cut more than lies
They claim that I'm not me
They say I won't survive
But we'll wait and see
Light fade to black
Light fade to black
Light fade to black
Light fade to black
Thoughts keep turning
Helpless flailing
Confrontation
Slowly crumbling
They say it looks like, tastes like, feels the same
They say, "You sound like them
But you're not as strong"
They say, "You can't hold up
To those gleaming songs"
Their words cut more than lies
They claim that I'm not me
They say I won't survive
But we'll wait and see
I say you speak like a god
But I know you're wrong
I've seen so close up
And your pride is gone
I'll cut right through your lies
I know that I am me
I think that I'll survive
But we'll wait and see
Maybe I'll burn like the rest
Who never stopped being compared
Or I'll hide in my cave
Like a winter-fearing bear
Because I never could
Sound like myself
As much as those who sound
Just like me
Thoughts keep turning
Helpless flailing
Confrontation
Slowly crumbling
They say, "You sound like them
But you're not as strong"
They say, "You can't hold up
To those gleaming songs"
Their words cut more than lies
They claim that I'm not me
They say I won't survive
But we'll wait and see
