I Don't Wanna be You

By: Chemical Legend

By Chemical LegendPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Nowhere to run

Nowhere to hide

When every secret

Is left open-wide

I wouldn't want to be you

Digging your lover's grave

To hide the fear

Slowly creeping in

Tears falling

Dirt flying

Heart sinking

Phobia floating

I wouldn't want to be you

Secrets and lies

All you tell

Say your fine

Though you bleed

Quietly scream

Your not okay

Your not okay

YOUR NOT OKAY

NO ONE'S OKAY

No one's okay

No one's okay

No one's okay

I wouldn't want…

...to be you

. . . .
