"Like A Person" lyrics

"Like A Person"

These clothes don't fit right
These shoes feel too high
Yet I feel small
Like no one at all
Walk in the room
These walls, they talk

It's that time of year again
Where I see the family that I've never really met
It's time to play the role again
The one I never asked to be in, to be in

Lies, lies
Turn out my lights
Put my head down, I swear I'm fine
You, you
Runnin' your mouth
God is right and I'm freaked out
Why, why
I feel like swine
I wish I could just fit in one time
Just to be defined
Like a person, yeah
With a purpose, yeah

I cry, I'm sorry
As if there's something wrong
And maybe there is
It feels like it
Still just a kid
My heart's so soft

It's that time of year again
Where I see the family that I've never really met
It's time to play the role again
The one I never asked to be in, to be in

Lies, lies
Turn out my lights
Put my head down, I swear I'm fine
You, you
Runnin' your mouth
God is right and I'm freaked out
Why, why
I feel like swine
I wish I could just fit in one time
Just to be defined
Like a person, yeah
With a purpose, yeah
Like a person, yeah
With a purpose
With a purpose

Show up to the party
Wearing my best skin
Wish I could change it
I just want you to love me
To give me your blessing
It's all that I'm asking

Lies, lies
Turn out my lights
Put my head down, I swear I'm fine
You, you
Runnin' your mouth
God is right and I'm freaked out
Why, why
I feel like swine
I wish I could just fit in one time
Just to be defined
Like a person, yeah
With a purpose, yeah
Like a person, yeah
With a purpose
With a purpose
