Anyone But Me

Oh will I waste away
Watch in horror as my life decays
Who have I become
In the night
Of my mind
Can you hear it in your chest
The fiend you’ve tried to keep silent

Can you feel it
On your shoulders?
Feel the sickness,
Taking over?
I would do anything
To be anyone, anyone but
I would do anything
To be anyone
Anyone but me

Oh, what a choice I face
Accept parts of me I can’t erase
Can I learn to love
The shadow
And the light

You know it deep within your chest
You’re the fiend you try to silence

I am the weight on your shoulders
I am the sickness taking over
I would do anything
To be anyone
Anyone but me

I am the sickness
I am your darkness
I am your fears
I am you
