Like Me Songtext
von Preacher Boy

I have no choice and I do not choose, I am not a liar but I know no truth
I just waste all my time thinkin′ about dyin' off someday
It helps me with my breathin′, to blow my blues away

I have no god and I just read books about thieves of thought and the things they took
From time and all its whisper, from fate and all its scream
And meanwhile I'm just breathin' in somebody′s dreams

I wear old clothes and sometimes bathe, cut my hair and shave my face
But mirrors make me nervous and knives break my mind
I think breathin is just enough, to occupy my time

If I forget to think about food I do not eat until it′s well past noon
But I don't ever go hungry, and I do not ever get fed
But sometimes if I′m not movin I get afraid that I might be dead


I swear I don't fear dyin′ now it's the thing that make me wonder how
I might spend my time better cuz the spendin′ is getting' strange
I'm waitin for the promise that the spirit can make me change

When I breathe in I pray about that soon I will be breathin′ out
And if I make it that far then I′m pretty sure I will
Be makin tomorrow's coffee and drinkin′ up my fill

But I'd be lyin if I said I never go and hide in my bed
Yeah, sometimes when I′m worried I pull the covers up til I can't see
But I always leave a crack open, cuz I need some air to breathe

When I close my eyes I start to see I pray that nothing frightens me
No blades held to my finger, no white bones in my room
Just a spirit that′s playin' the trumpet with lungs the size of the moon

I may drink water from a cup but I do not feel like growin up
Oh, I'm just tryin′ to take time but it′s hard to get it free
When both your hands are tied up in a haunted house like me
