I'm a sinking ship, don't hold onto me I always was and I will always be I'm just a slave to your misconception You almost made me believe that I was special It's just the same old story You made me pick up the pieces of your broken dreams And now they're pushing down on me It's just the same old story But you just won't understand That what you see in me is more than I am I am the terrors in my mother's sleep I am the sting in my father's back I am the tear on my brother's cheek I am everyone's heart attack It's just the same old story You made me pick up the pieces of your broken dreams And now they're pushing down on me It's just the same old story But you just won't understand That what you see in me is more than I am
