"I Don't Want To Be You" lyrics

"I Don't Want To Be You"

All your followers they all need to be counted
Those numbers then must somehow be displayed
In this dire day and age you get to create your own page
That won't amount to too much I'm afraid

For protection preservation and prevention
You won't need too much more than just an ounce
That should go a long way but you've failed to mention
Words that you have heard but mispronounce

And when you feel like you are on your way to heaven
I have a feeling that might not be true

But there's a place for you
There's a place for you
There's a place for you
There's a place for you
A special place in hell waiting for you

As we slowly slide on out of our existence
Don't you dare to push back or resist
There'll be no more perseverance or persistence
You should have tried all that long before this

And when you feel like you are on your way to heaven
That might not be where you end up going to

But there's a place for you
There's a place for you
There's a place for you
There's a place for you
There's a place for you
There's a place for you
There's a place for you
There's a place for you
A special place in hell waiting for you

I don't wanna run hot I don't wanna be cold
I don't wanna be taught I don't wanna be told
I don't wanna be bought I don't wanna be sold
And I don't want to be high
And I don't wanna die or be passive like the masses
And just sit idly by
I don't wanna be right I would rather be wrong
I don't wanna fight I'd rather get along
I don't wanna be weak I gotta stay strong
I don't wanna be you, I don't wanna be you
I don't wanna be you, I don't wanna be you
I don't wanna be you, I don't wanna be you
I don't wanna be you, I don't wanna be you
I don't wanna be you, you
You
