I'm not like you
I'm afraid of the past
And when I clutch your hands
I know the moment won't last
I don't get it
What you see in me
Cause being warm and loving
Never came easily

I wanna know you
Can't you see me try
But the closer I get
The more I'm sure you want to die
Do you understand me
Do you want to try
Or should I retreat back
Should I just hide

Forgive me father for trying on an identity I thought was suited for me
I guess I'll go back to the way I was before, it was easier for sure

If I stare at the wall, they can't think that I'm mean
And if I say nothing at all, will they think I'm a machine
If I put on the phantom's mask
Will I be alone at last
But since I didn't choose
What will be my excuse

You know I'm just like you
I think I'm unique
But when the sun rises again
You'll understand I'm just a freak
I write sad poems
And it makes proud
But I wish I could write love songs
I wish I could be happy out loud

Forgive me mother for ever wanting more, for ever being sure
I guess I'll go back and never try to change, at least I won't be estranged

If I stare at the wall, they can't think that I'm mean
And if I say nothing at all, will they think I'm a machine
If I put on the phantom's mask
Will I be alone at last
But since I didn't choose
What will be my excuse
If I look at the floor, will I ever meet your stare
If I'm stopped from staying more, will you ever clear the air
If I take off the phantom's mask
Will I find freedom at last
But since I'm unashamed
Will they slander my good name

Oh, just put me back on the cold hardwood floor
Trace the lines of the old man, stop me from wanting more
Please don't let me pull the switch and let the thoughts win in my head
Don't let me take the path less traveled, and not regret all the things I said

If I stare at the wall (they can't think that I'm mean)
And if I say nothing at all (will they think I'm a machine)
If I put on the phantom's mask (will I be alone at last)
But since I didn't choose (what will be my excuse)
If I turn my hazy eyes, will they know that I am strange
If I jump into the sky, will they see that I'm deranged
If I burn the phantom's mask
Will it scrub the dirty past
But there's no going back
How will I counterattack

I'm gonna make a mistake that's irreconcilable
And I'll be better for it
