Who I Am Hates Who I've Been

I watched the proverbial sunrise

Coming up over the pacific

And you might think I'm losing my mind

But I will shy away from the specifics

Cause I don't want you to know where I am

Cause then you'll see my heart in the saddest state it's ever been

And this is no place to try to live my life



Stop right there

That's exactly where I lost it

See that line

Well, I never should have crossed it

Stop right there

Well I never should've said that

It's the very moment that I wish that I could take back



I'm sorry for the person I became

I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change

I'm ready to be sure

I never become that way again

Cause who I am hates who I've been

Who I am hates who I've been



I talked to absolutely no one

Coudn't keep to myself enough

And the things bottled inside had finally begun

To create so much pressure that I'd soon blow up



And I heard the reverberating footsteps

Syncing up to the beating of my heart

And I was positive that unless

I got myself together I would watch me fall apart



And I can't let that happen again

Cause then you'll see my heart in the saddest state it's ever been

And this is no place to live my life



Who I am hates who I've been

And who I am will take the second chance you gave me

Who I am hates who I've been

Cause who I've been only ever made me
