This past year I sought to be someone else
Someone lower and far less appealing
I thought it’d raise my confidence
But I lost my common sense
I became my biggest hatred
I lost myself inside someone new
Made up of all the men I thought I looked up to
This 21st year, I left a shell of myself
I wound up dirty and cold, inside this bed all alone
I thought I wanted it all
Lost sight
You were it all along
Inside my head i run back up through Filmore Falls
I lost myself inside someone new
made up of all the men i thought i looked up to
this 21st year i left a shell of myself
i wound up dirty and cold inside this bed all alone
I am not my brother
I am not my friends
I am not the man society expects
I am me
I am I
I fall deep when I look in those eyes
I am scared and sometimes weak
But what I see in us is not so bleak
This song is for you
This song is for me
A tribute to those who’ve buckled at the knees
When confronted with happiness, a true state of bliss
Beware the greed that swoons with its kiss
You search for perfect to hide your fault
But it’s those scars that give love to your heart
