08 But this is not Me (Mental Reflections)

[Verse 1] It always seems I spend all my time Screaming inside, crying at night Wishing for better times This is not me I bought the side of me that seems to be out Has been thinking I can never be happy again What truth is in that, just to pray Feeling as if I'm not being heard But this is not me Channeling the dark inside of me Where I'm empty all the time [Chorus] What this is not me It's only the side That has me hurting all the time [Verse 2] With my true face hiding inside Sunk as deep into my subconscious So it doesn't feel the pain As my soul aches [Chorus] But this is not me Shivering, cowering by the corner Afraid for my life [Chorus] But this is not me Channeling the dark inside of me Where I'm empty all the time What this is not me It's only the side That has me hurting all the time [Verse 3] What will it take To feel like myself again But I can't seem to find it It's not like me to be this way Just seems it's the only way I can exist Feeling doomed all the time [Chorus] What this is not me Protecting who I am inside What this is not me
