lyrics

I'm sorry, but in this light
You reminded me of someone else
Someone I felt a lot about a long time ago
way back when I was someone else

I know you're smiling
thinking it's the booze that's talking
it doesn't really bother me
any more than what you're smoking


This isn't a come-on
I know you're not really listening to what I'm saying
I just need to talk to someone
give me ten minutes of your time than you can walk

I used to be someone
a person with hopes and dreams
but my inaction
turned them to dust or so it seems


I used to be so strong
or so I thought at the time
I was so certain
I'd left all my childhood fears behind

Looking back it seems so stupid
I was controlled by foolish pride
I couldn't feel for others
maybe because I was dead inside


I see I got your attention
I knew it wouldn't take me long
we all find strength in someone else's weakness
no matter if we know it's wrong

I felt so secure and safe
up in my ivory tower
but all I did was kill time
until the final hour

I should have known that
the good times would never last
and I found myself
tormented by ghosts of my past

Nameless fears I thought I'd
dealt with a long long time ago
joined their forces
and took inside my head to pieces
more than I could ever know...
