(Never Wanna Be) Like You
Ammie Harman
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I spent so many years Defending your reputation But your actions always spoke So much louder than words (Say it isn’t so) You’ve made a meal of Every sinful temptation Patient as a vulture Always waiting for the worst (Ain’t that the way it goes) Round and round You hunted me down Like your prey I tried to run so far away (A secret no one knows) I worked so hard to Earn your affection Learn my lesson The walls whisper of foul play (A vision in a kaleidoscope) PRE-CHORUS: Change your mind, change the story Fantasize about your glory Keep them crawling at your feet Change the tide, change the season Make them believe in your reasons Manipulate every soul you meet Oh, you play the victim so well Got the whole world under your spell CHORUS: Oh you, took away my innocence Clouded my serenity in this existence A time when I still believed in magic and love So, what is love? Oh you, shredded my safety net Got carried away with the fraternity paddle again Bruised and broken, still it was never enough So, what is enough? I survived the worst storm you could brew The light beyond your cloud is breaking through And now I know I Never wanna be like you I tried to brave, tried to mend Tried to save you from yourself Time and time again You let yourself be devoured by pain (How do I break your hold?) I don’t know what to say anymore You are who you are Who you’ve always been A heart corrupted by disdain (Say it isn’t so) (PRE-CHORUS, CHORUS) I was just a little girl who Did whatever you asked me to Vying for a mother’s love An outcast with the duct-taped shoes Oh mama, can we play pretend? Now I’m a grown woman who Has seen the worst of what you can do To the ones you loved And made a villain in your abuse Oh mama, is this how our story ends? (Tap, tap, tap) Say it isn’t so... bad (CHORUS) Oh, I looked up to you Oh, you were all I knew The biggest eyes The brightest shade of blue I never wanna be like you I wanna be like me, finally I wanna do what you couldn’t do And heal this family And be all you never wanted to
