Lyrics
To Be Like You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Restless in my bones, too much lead
in my belly, oh
Into my headphones the thrill
of a hunter's song
As I look through the train and
the window and the raindrops
I get rid of a ghost haunting me
Every move used to be so slow,
trying to be like you
Any sign couldn't let me know,
'cause I had to see it through
I never thought I could get out
of this crowded hell
'Cause I'm not alone, I ain't the only one
Drowning in doubt,
hiding in my shell
If you could only see that
I am bearing all this fight
To be honest on every side
Every move used to be so slow,
trying to be like you
Any sign couldn't let me know,
'cause I had to see it through
That's what you get when you sacrify
your kid inside
To be someone you will never be
And I will never be like that.
