Simon Safran - Someone Else Lyrics

Painted on a smile you fake
You flaunt everything you deny
I shed tears away from ear shot
Only you could make you cry
You wouldn't tell me why

Knowing he's a neighborhood away
He's the gem that I won't be so
Don't you wish that I was someone else

Walking round the commons I hear
You two had planned for days
His story was only ever vague
But you two are somehow the same
Can't even say your name

I call you up to scream but I'm just too afraid so I cover it all
I knew you wished that I was someone else
Don't you wish that I was someone else

He's the king of all your dreams
Whatever those were supposed to be
Towered over me it seems
Enjoyed your lovers chair I see
Did you ever love me

You stick to him and I'm tired cause I'm supposed to pretend that I don't care at all
And I wish that I was someone else
Don't you wish that I was someone else
