Lyrics
NOT ME
Tell me what am I looking for
'Cause I don't know
When it's real, it's hard to ignore
Oh
Tell me where do I belong
'Cause I don't know
I'm empty like a desparate song
Oh
I can feel, I can see
I can hear, I can breathe
But I can't think
I can live, I can die
I can scream in my mind
But I don't think it's me inside
Tell me what have I done
'Cause I don't know
Has my nightmare only begun
Oh
I can feel, I can see
I can hear, I can breathe
But I can't think
I can live, I can die
I can scream in my mind
But I don't think it's me inside
I can feel, I can see
I can hear, I can breathe
But I can't think
I can live, I can die
I can scream in my mind
But I don't think it's me inside
Tell me what have I done
'Cause I don't know
