I Am Everyone Else Lyrics

Children on the street
The cowardly and scared
And powerfully prepared
For things I dare not speak of in all of my lifetime
For I am ready

Mother nature calls
And beckons them to come
The innocent and dumb
To witness persecution for my family
For I am ready
To turn the many into song
Before you run out of rhyme and notes to strum

Why do you act sick and pretend?
Pretend that you're never lonely
Aren't you just sick of expending
All your time getting noticed
Show me the message you sent
Act like you never wrote it
Aren't you just sick of your friends?
Your friends with ulterior motives
Cause I am everyone else
I am everyone else
I am everyone else
I am everyone else
I

I am insecure
As pretty as I seem
It's a reoccurring theme
I've never heard much different in all of my lifetime
I am ready

Oh love ain't good for you
As lovely as you are
You're precious, you're a star
Your energy is admirable at the most
For I am ready
To reconsider what you have
Before you run out of rhyme and words to chant

Why do you act sick and pretend?
Pretend that you're never lonely
Aren't you just sick of expending
All your time getting noticed
Show me the message you sent
And act like you never wrote it
Aren't you just sick of your friends
Your friends with ulterior motives
Cause I am everyone else
I am everyone else
I am everyone else
I am everyone else
I am
