Something That I'm Not

Your mind tells you that you've lost your confidence

You're drifting and ya don't believe in anyone

To lose what little you have left to be proud of

Afraid you can't do this again, ah!

You said that nothing come in-between us

And the way of getting things we wanted done

Then enissophobia held you under its influence

Until you compromised your style

Everything about you has been one big charade

What will you do now that the well's run dry? Cry?

To sell out all your friends and stab them in the back

It's something that you are; it's something that I'm not

When you forced me into doing what you love

Mark my words no one loves you very much, yeah mark em'

And when you tried to change me and tried to replace me

I couldn't help but end just hating you, hmm!

Being a fraud can only last so long, you should know

Till what ya sensed as a child returns, you little baby

To choke out the voice that told ya "money and the fame"

Would fill the crater that you dug for yourself

Unlike you I'm no vision to myself, lest you forget

You didn't ever make Metal, buddy; Metal made you

To crush and run over everyone along the way

It's something that you are; it's something that I'm not

A stranger to yourself, ha! Ya pissed me off again

I won't be driven by your needs anymore

What you'd become to do or be is clear to see for me

It's something that you are; something that I'm not

It makes me sick to hear you say you "love me"

I know you only love what I can do for you

If you were the one that was leading the charge

Would you notice if I missed a day or two? But that's impossible!

We all laughed at the parodies that you'd become

Now your pain slowly paid back has begun

So, accept my resignation, or in your words "betrayal"

Before it gets much worse, end this self-sabotage

Something that I'm not

Something that you are

Something I'm not

Something that I'm not

Something that you are

Something I'm not

Something that you are

Something I'm not, yet
