Can't Be Myself Songtext
von Watershed

Slam the door and grab the phone
Like a pistol against my head
Ask your machine, "Where are you?"
Damn, it never knows
Did I just leave a message or a suicide note?
Gotta suck the words back down my throat
And I don′t know how long I can hold out
Hold on, hold on

When I see you girl, I want to change
My clothes, my eyes, my hair, my face
Gotta get away so I can be myself, myself

Now you're staring in the mirror
Trying to see what I see
′Til you don't even recognize yourself
Downing empty bottles and broken glass
All tangled up in you, you
But everyone's got someone they can′t have
I got you


When I see you girl, I want to change
My clothes, my eyes, my hair, my face
I′ll be anything but I can't be myself, myself

I don′t know how long I can hold out
I don't know how long I can hold out
Tonight this phone feels like a pistol
Black and cold against my temple
Did I leave a message or a suicide note?
Suck the words back down my throat
Gotta suck the words back down my throat

When I see you girl, I want to change
My clothes, my eyes, my hair, my face
And every word that gets away
Is going off like a cherry bomb
I can suck all the luck from a seven-leaf clover
I′m bending, I'm breaking, I′m shaking, I'm over
I'll be anything but I can′t be myself
Got me slipping and sliding and tossing and turning
And coming and screaming and crashing and burning
I′ll be anything but I can't be myself, myself, myself
