I don't think that I can leave the house today
So I'll have to escape in other ways

I just wanna be like you
Try and feel something new
I just wanna be like elvis
I don't wanna feel like this
Like this

All of my life
All the people in my mind
Were always so much better than I
Could ever be if I tried
I've always dreamed of being
Anybody else but me

I'm painting pictures of the people I'd like to be
Fake conversations with everyone that I'd meet

I just wanna be like you
Try and feel something new
I just wanna be like Elvis
I don't wanna feel like this
Like this

All of my life
All the people in my mind
Were always so much better than I
Could ever be if I tried
I've always dreamed of being
Anybody else but me

Mirrors never show us
Pictures never show us
What we want to see

If I could show you how I
How I see myself
Then you'd understand

All of my life
All the people in my mind
Were always so much better than I
Could ever be if I tried
I've always dreamed of being
Anybody else but me
