Fractured dream, and I'm not the same
I've lost ability to escape in sleep
Hold on a little longer
And there's nothing left of me
And you said you love me, and you said you needed me
But it's not me
Was never on the inside, too long to be alone
Was never like them, no identity of my own
I can be anything except myself, chameleon
And you said you know me, and you said you'd care for me
But it's not me
Traumatized by the voices inside
Sold myself on a dream that lied
Do things that my friends don't recognize
And know I despise what I've come to feel
Fear constricts and I don't feel real
Parts of you begin to steal
I survive by adaptability
Why can't she see further inside of me
Pull me out and set me free
All I want is for you to let me be
Now I'm back and forth again
Pull me closer, push me away - chameleon
Why did it have to be you who did this to me?
I've tried everything, just to change the pain Fractured dream, and I'm not the same I've lost ability to escape in sleep Hold on a little longer And there's nothing left of me And you said you love me, and you said you needed me But it's not me Was never on the inside, too long to be alone Was never like them, no identity of my own I can be anything except myself, chameleon And you said you know me, and you said you'd care for me But it's not me Traumatized by the voices inside Sold myself on a dream that lied Do things that my friends don't recognize And know I despise what I've come to feel Fear constricts and I don't feel real Parts of you begin to steal I survive by adaptability Why can't she see further inside of me Pull me out and set me free All I want is for you to let me be Now I'm back and forth again Pull me closer, push me away - chameleon Why did it have to be you who did this to me?
