Wish I Was Someone Else

[Verse 1]
I did all the things I was told to do
I never even tried to bend the rules
This hereditary fear oh it grew me
Side-effect of my immigrant family

[Verse 2]
So I dated a boy with the same religion
Learned from him that I wanted something different
My parents always said never tell a lie
But the truth is that they wouldn't hear another side

[Pre-Chorus]
Closer, look in the mirror
Don't know her, now that I'm getting older
It's too late for starting over

[Chorus]
Wanna scream
But I can't 'cause my mouth won't open
Like a dream
Try to run but my legs stopped working
Wish I was someone else
Who made decisions for myself
But I don't know how
Where do I go now?

[Verse 3]
Bringing up youth to have a money addiction
Waiting for a paycheck to fill the prescription
Try to go to rehab but it don't exist
'Cause no one that I know ain't trynato get a fix

[Verse 4]
What am I supposed to do with a degree in business?
Didn't think it through, all I did was listen
To other people telling me what I should be
Now I'm living with my parents will I ever leave?

[Pre-Chorus]
Closer, look in the mirror
Don't know her, now that I'm getting older
It's too late for starting over

[Chorus]
Wanna scream
But I can't 'cause my mouth won't open
Like a dream
Try to run but my legs stopped working
Wish I was someone else
Who made decisions for myself
But I don't know how
Where do I go now?

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Wanna scream
But I can't 'cause my mouth won't open
Like a dream
Try to run but my legs stopped working
Wish I was someone else
Who made decisions for myself
But I don't know how
Where do I go now?
