"Everyone I've Ever Been" lyrics

"Everyone I've Ever Been"

You're not the first
To tell me I should be different

Yeah, that's what I've heard from myself for my entire existence

If I was some other person, I'd still be the person at fault
I know that nobody's perfect, but I might be the furthest of all
I might be the furthest of all

Am I still the same as everyone that I've been?
Every mistake, another mark on my skin
Like folds on a page, I'm showing my age
But is it too late for me to write a new end?
Wish I could erase and start it over again
Or throw it away
'Cause I'm still the same
And I'm still to blame for everyone I've ever been

I've got a room full of faces
And I'm tired of facing them off
'Cause I've been pacing the places
Of all of the people I'm not

And in my mind of mirrors, I'm the last one left
It's a constant fear that I just can't express
Would I see me clearer if I broke the glass
Or would it change anything?

Am I still the same as everyone that I've been?
Every mistake, another mark on my skin
Like folds on a page, I'm showing my age
But is it too late for me to write a new end?
Wish I could erase and start it over again
Or throw it away
'Cause I'm still the same
And I'm still to blame for everyone I've ever been

I'm learning softer sounds
'Cause I've forgotten how
When there's a constant doubt
That I'll only find another way to let you down

Am I still the same as everyone that I've been?
Every mistake, another mark on my skin
Like folds on a page, I'm showing my age
But is it too late for me to write a new end?
Wish I could erase and start it over again
Or throw it away
'Cause I'm still the same
And I'm still to blame for everyone I've ever been
