How to Be Like Me

Say yes when you know you never will
Never have enough and never settle for less
Sleep when all you need is a solution
Ask for a little more when you've got it all
Act like you've always got an explanation
Even when you don't know what you were thinking
And when you can't get your point across
Scream to get it through their skull

Cry and try harder when you don't get your way
Whatever it takes to make them hurt like you
They gave you this life, so they deserve hell
When the inquire the problem, say you're okay
Take all the bullshit that they sell
Then act like you never bought it
And scream it to get it through your skull

See the right way and take all the wrong turns
Take what you want; leave what you need
Fall in love with a kiss, the shadow of a self
Turn away from the cure `cause you can't stand the burn
Make yourself be strong when you're nothing but weak
Keep all  your memories on the very back shelf
Never look back and never know what you seek
And when you can't make them understand...
