Am I nevertheless just a mannequin?
An unreal image of hope for brighter days
I've been bent out of shape
I've been supported by a false rhyme paying me part time
'Cause you're a lot like me
You don't strike me as false and violent insde
'Cause you're a lot like me
You're fierce, you fight me
But hell I'd give a lot to be you
Dear god, when this storm is over
We'll see how many lies end up true
Can I exit this room?
Oh you got me all the nice things but we'll see what that brings
If that's bad then here's lesson one
I know it's hard to say you hate me but I know it's true
'Cause you're a lot like me
You don't strike me as false and violent insde
'Cause you're a lot like me
You're fierce, you fight me
But hell I'd give a lot to be you
Dear god, when this storm is over
We'll see how many lies end up true
Exhale slide down your spine
Your body's all but mine, but don't you feel like "Hell, I'm alive"?
That's why you're a lot like me
You're poison ivy, doing what I do
But that's not why I'm fighting
There's one more thing on my mind
My mind's not really mine but I don't mind being left behind
Still a persistant fighter
Provoke the fire
Struggling more just to get a little higher
'Cause you're a lot like me
You don't strike me as false and violent insde
'Cause you're a lot like me
You're fierce, you fight me
But hell I'd give a lot to be you
Dear god, when this storm is over
We'll see how many lies end up true
'Cause you're a lot like me
You're fierce, you fight me
So promise me I'll get another chance
I'd forgive you if you knew what I knew
Something so sweetly wrapped up in the end
I'd forgive you if you knew what I knew
Something so sweetly wrapped up in the end
