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
