lyrics

It's so hard these days to be yourself
originality collects like dust on a shelf
I think that I've become part of this crime
like the less fortunate I've become blind
no one knows me for me, I've buried the truth
and my father always said be true to yourself
but my fathers ashamed every day
so much that his hairs gone grey
So lustful not for beauty but for acceptance
so much that human emotion is absent
My friends now call me an acquaintance
so I'll reflect on myself with words
words you'll hear in this song
I can only put on a front and act calm
but we all know that it won't last long
like father like son they say
but my father is ashamed of me everyday
someone ignite the match and set me to flames
so that I'll be the one to blame
Because I am way off track
this is not where I want to be
and so I'll continue to sing
forget me just leave me
I'll continue to live in this dream
times have changed and so have I
why can't I feel alive
my life is a lie
and so is yours
we are a dying world
