"As Long As You're Not You" lyrics

"As Long As You're Not You"

Another plan
It all went down the drain
I thought I had
Another chance to gain

Been far too long
I've had it
I'll wade around
'Till I quit
I've got some room for you
But I'll just save myself

All I can do is just sit here and whine now
At everyone living their goddamned lives

Stop standing around
You gotta check it out
Start pulling your weight
You only let me down
Won't break any ground
You know you're gonna go far someday
As long as you're not you

It's time to do it
My way
Look at me now
They'll all pay
I've got no room for you
I'm out of souls to sell

All I can do is just sit here and whine now
At everyone losing their goddamned minds

Stop standing around
You gotta check it out
Start pulling your weight
You only let me down
Won't break any ground
You know you're gonna go far someday
As long as you're not you

As long as you're not you

You got some nerve
You got some nerve
To show your face around here

You got some nerve
You got some nerve
To show your face around here now

You got some nerve
Got some nerve
You're only fake
It's not real

You got some nerve
Some fucking nerve

Stop standing around
You gotta check it out
Start pulling your weight
You only let me down
Won't break any ground
You know you're gonna go far someday
As long as you're not you

Stop standing around
You gotta check it out
Start pulling your weight
You only let me down
Won't break any ground
You know you're gonna go far someday
As long as you're not you

As long as you're not you
