Why must I be me? Ill be anybody else. Out of all the people in the world, Why must I be stuck with being me? I’ve always tried to find out who I am. I felt empty, And like my own identity was missing. I wish I had never gone looking, For now I’m ashamed with my results. This was never my plan. Finding myself was supposed to send all the worry elsewhere. I was supposed to finally be satisfied. This negative feeling was finally going to be put to rest. But now there’s no going back. This is who I am, But this is everything I don’t want to be. I’ll be anybody else. Please help me escape. I can’t stand it here much longer, My own intellect is killing me from the inside out.
