Who I Am hates Who I've Been - Relient K

I watched the proverbial sunrise
Coming up over the Pacific end
You might think I'm losing my mind
But I will shy away from the specifics..

'Cause I don't want you to know where I am
'Cause then you'll see my heart
In the saddest state it's ever been

This is no place to try and live my life

Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it.
See that line. Well, I never should have crossed it.
Stop right there. Well, I never should have said
That it's the very moment that
I wish that I could take back

I'm sorry for the person I became
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change
I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again
'Cause who I am hates who I've been
Who I am hates who I've been

I talk to absolutely noone
Couldn't keep to myself enough
And the things bottled inside have finally begun
To create so much pressure that I'll soon blow up

I heard the reverberating footsteps
Synching up to the beating of my heart
And I was positive that unless I got myself together
I would watch me fall apart


And I can't let that happen again
'Cause then you'll see my heart
In the saddest state it's ever been

This is no place to try and live my life

Who I am hates who I've been
And who I am will take the second chance you gave me
Who I am hates who I've been
'Cause who I've been only ever made me..

I'm sorry for the person I became
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change
I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again
'Cause who I am hates who I've been
Who I am hates who I've been
