Why couldn’t I be something Something other than me Why couldn’t I be A fish under the sea Anything but me Why couldn’t I be that pestering Rat That runs in fear daily chased by a cat Why couldn’t I be something Something other than me Why couldn’t I be in the blue skies Like that blue Jay with wings that can fly Why couldn’t I be something Something other than me Why couldn’t I be so beautiful Like I see Of the imagine in the mirror looking back at me Anything other than me.

Anything But Me
I cannot change it I cannot change the past Reliving memories keeps me up at night It's hard enough as it is Rewriting them only adds to the pain So many things I said and did And so many I didn't say or do But why Why after all this time Can I not stick it in my head That I cannot change the past And why Why can't I believe myself When I say that I can only change the future
