Burnt up those years out of touch with reality
Didn't have those fears those fears didn't have me
Held out too long clueless as a child
Jump through lives living tame but running wild
There in one piece I'm still trying
All that anger for you is dying
Looked up to but couldn't connect
Ease to surrender of what's next
Hey I've been living as somebody else
And I got to take it up on myself
Better or worse i stood up for myself
Left with regret and left with nothing else
Outside acts and here we are
Weighed evidence and taking it too far
Hey I've been living as somebody else
And I got to take it up on myself
With life and the hand that I've been dealt
And try not to leave you the way I felt
Hey I've been living as somebody else
And I got to take it up on myself
With life and the hand that I've been dealt
And try not to leave you the way I felt
