Wish I Was Someone Else

I did all the things I was told to do
I never even tried to bend the rules
This hereditary fear oh it grew me
Side-effect of my immigrant family

So I dated a boy with the same religion
Learned from him that I wanted something different
My parents always said never tell a lie
But the truth is that they wouldn't hear another side

Closer, look in the mirror
Don't know her, now that I'm getting older
It's too late for starting over

Wanna scream
But I can't 'cause my mouth won't open
Like a dream
Try to run but my legs stopped working
Wish I was someone else
Who made decisions for myself
But I don't know how
Where do I go now?

Bringing up youth to have a money addiction
Waiting for a paycheck to fill the prescription
Try to go to rehab but it don't exist
'Cause no one that I know ain't trynato get a fix

What am I supposed to do with a degree in business?
Didn't think it through, all I did was listen
To other people telling me what I should be
Now I'm living with my parents will I ever leave?

Closer, look in the mirror
Don't know her, now that I'm getting older
It's too late for starting over

Wanna scream
But I can't 'cause my mouth won't open
Like a dream
Try to run but my legs stopped working
Wish I was someone else
Who made decisions for myself
But I don't know how
Where do I go now?

Wanna scream
But I can't 'cause my mouth won't open
Like a dream
Try to run but my legs stopped working
Wish I was someone else
Who made decisions for myself
But I don't know how
Where do I go now?
