about

My first serious song Ive ever written. It's about questioning who I really am as a person. Yeah, I know, sensitive stuff, bleh.

lyrics

Chords: C, F, Am

People tell me to be myself and I say I don’t know who that is.
I’m staring in the mirror and I see someone staring back at me,
but I don’t know who that person could be.

It’s funny how i’m questioning my-my morality,
and words like ethicality have funny, funny rings to me.
And the line between right and wrong is now a shade of grey.

Is it normal to be 15 and struggle with your identity?
Because it feels like that changes every other day.

Now I’m saying things I’d never say, I wonder why I talk that way,
And wonder why I dress this way, who the hell am I trying to impress?

I have no one to impress but myself and I’m failing,
And i’m fran-tic-ly flailing, trying to catch a fall.

I’m probably crazy, and I’m constantly lazy.
And I swear to God if one more person tells me that its over
I’ll never, I’ll never, I’ll never leave my room again.
And its not like I was going to anyways.
because my pillows and blankets aren’t assholes.

Now I’m saying things I’d never say, I wonder why I talk that way,
And wonder why I dress this way, who the hell am I trying to impress?
I have no one to impress but myself and I’m failing,
And i’m fran-tic-ly flailing, trying to catch a fall.

But this is just quote on quote me.
Screaming at my reality.
It’s sad to finally see,
That this is where we… end
and We being me, myself, and I.
And ending by going to sleep.
