Person I am Not Lyrics by RENT STRIKE

RENT STRIKE!!

2014

Well I was in the hospital a year ago today
Since then a lot has changed and a lot has stayed the same
They said I have a problem, a problem in my brain
That makes me feel so sad and put these needles in my vein
Well it's true that I might die someday in a hotel room or an alleyway
But we all gotta die someday and that shouldn't bring you down
I got one finger on this life and someday I will hold it tight
I swear to god tonights the night we burn this fucking town
And I got a feeling that's living in my heart
It's restless and it weighs a lot
Sometimes it takes ovеr and everything gets dark
And I'm haunted by the person I am not
The person with a stable mind who cuts himself some slack sometimes
And isn't scared of when he dies and practices what he'll preach
But for now, I'll pour another shot for that perfect person i am not
That restless feeling's all I got and that's good enough for me
And I was born twenty years ago by now
To my loving patient mother and my dad
And I can't help it if I always let them down
And remind them of the son they could've had
One step forward and two steps back, the way I live is like a dance
And that dance is going nowhere fast and I can't stop once I start
Ill never be that better man or any other kind of man
I'm learning to love the way I am but its really fucking hard
