Robert Morton - Who I Used To Be

I'm afraid to fall asleep
I'm afraid to be alone
I live in fear of dying early
Worrying about things I can't control
I want everyone to like me
I want my voice to be heard

I want to tune out the voices
I want to tune out the noise
People say I won't make it
They don't give me a choice
I'll show them I can do it all
I'll prove everyone wrong
They'll see

They'll see
I don't write music for them it's for me
I'm trying to find out who I used to be
Before they took the joy out of me
I'm trying to find out who I used to be
I'm trying to find the person I can be
I'm trying to find out who I used to be

I strive to be perfect
I strive to be right
I fall when I fail
I seem to lose sight
Of the things that really matter
Of the reason I'm alive

I want to be noticed
I want to be heard
People think that I don't realize
They cut my wings like a bird
I want to be free
Of anxiety
They'll see

They'll see
I don't write music for them it's for me
I'm trying to find out who I used to be
Before they took the joy out of me
I'm trying to find out who I used to be
I'm trying to find the person I can be
I'm trying to find out who I used to be

I'm afraid to fall asleep
I'm afraid to be alone
I live in fear of dying early
Worrying about things I can't control
I want everyone to like me
I want my voice to be heard

They'll see
I don't write music for them it's for me
I'm trying to find out who I used to be
Before they took the joy out of me
I'm trying to find out who I used to be
I'm trying to find the person I can be
I'm trying to find out who I used to be
