I Tried to Be You

I wore your clothes to make me feel, make me feel better

I wore your clothes out so I could feel like a man

I wore your clothes, hid who I am

Hide what I can, so I felt like a man

I tried to be you, but being you's not easy

I wore myself out trying to be you

I tried to be you, but being you's not easy

I wore myself out trying to be you

So I tried on your clothes

When there really wasn't time

Like the void scared myself away

I tried, I tried, I tried, I failed

Actor with a script

Absorbing line becomes

By one method or another

Immersed himself, left behind

I tried to be you, but being you's not easy

I wore myself out trying to be you

I tried to be you, but being you's not easy

I wore myself out trying to be you

Behind a curtain a self hid

I tried to be you, but being you won't do

I wore your clothes out, hid who I am

I wore your clothes to make me feel like a man

I tried to be you, but being you's not easy

I wore myself out trying to be you

I tried to be you, but being you's not easy

I wore myself out trying to be you
