I’m a nobody while you’re over there being somebody,
I’m trying to hold it together while you got it made,
you’re beaming while I’m beginning to fade,
why can’t I be like you?
You’re living the life,
while mine is filled with strife,
I’m being torn in two,
I want to be like you,
but it’ll never be true,
I’m a loser you’re a winner,
you’re a saint I’m a sinner,
You’re alive while I’m trying to survive,
your life is looking up while mine is taking a dive,
It’s amazing, the friendships that you’ve built,
I try sometimes, but can’t get past my guilt,
Hurting while you’re happy,
weeping while you’re leaping,
bleeding while you’re beaming,
dying while you’re flying,
Why do I have to feel this pain,
my teardrops keep falling like rain,
no one really knows how it is to be me,
I’ll never be free,
from this prison I’m in,
I’m not who I’ve been.
My love is fiction yours is true,
I just wanna be like you,
I wanna be like you,
like you.
