[Verse 1: Marcus King]
Looking at the wall wondering what I'm gonna do
Memories are all I have since I don't have a view
Was afraid of dying, now I'm scared to live
Gotten so used to lying, now the truth is a sin
Been around here for six months, ain't heard a sound
[Chorus: Marcus King & Jesse Welles]
Closer to someone and further away from myself
She didn't like who I was, so I tried to be somebody else
Anonymous meetings and taking a beating don't help
She didn't like who I was, so I tried to be somebody else
[Verse 2: Jesse Welles & Marcus King]
Time ain't a mirror, but it's getting clearer to see
Another old timer ain't somethin' I'm wanting to be
Oh, six long months ain't enough to come around
After two or three years, maybe I can live it down
[Chorus: Marcus King & Jesse Welles]
Closer to someone and further away from myself
She didn't like who I was, so I tried to be somebody else
Anonymous meetings and taking a beating don't help
She didn't like who I was, so I tried to be somebody else
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
