When you look at me
My facsimile
Smiles in stolen sugar eyes
But you fail to read
Into disbelief
Frozen firmly to the lies

If I could be somebody else
If I could be somebody new
If I could be somebody else
I'd be you
I'd be you

Flowing nicotine
Nutrient caffeine
Alarming changes in discreet
Picking up your gun
Shoot them one by one
Trading oxygen for heat

If I could be somebody else
If I could be somebody new
If I could be somebody else
I'd be you
I'd be you

Count the cloning sheep
For tonight we'll sleep
Painting pictures in our minds
No more plans to make
Wearing chain mail plate
I am leaving you behind

If I could be somebody else
If I could be somebody new
If I could be somebody else
I'd be you
