"I Don't Need To Be You" 
***Lyrics***


n-n-never going to fit them all, 
but i won't be a lier
I'm never going to wear your shoes
to become your desire

I don't need to be there when you want, 
want, to be the one, one who saves a sound,
I'm the one I ever do that out.

I don't need to fake, 'cause I'm more than a dummy!
I never found it funny!
I never hurt no one for who they are.
I don't need to play Hide and seek with nobody!
I'm not a bulls-eye-honey!
Just live and let me live!

I DON'T NEED TO BE YOU,
you, you, you, you, you, you!
I DON'T NEED TO BE YOU
you, you, you, you, you, you!
Youuu, youuu WHY? Yeah

m-m-maybe we can get along, 
looking chains for the better.
I can tell you I'm not the only one, 
who has needed a cover.

I don't need to be there when you want, 
want, to be the one, one you give a shock.
I don't need to be there when I'm not!

I don't need to fake, 'cause I'm more than a dummy!
I never found it funny!
I never hurt no one for who they are.
I don't need to play Hide and seek with nobody!
I'm not a bulls-eye-honey!
Just live and let me live!

I DON'T NEED TO BE YOU,
you, you, you, you, you, you!
I DON'T NEED TO BE YOU,
you, you, you, you, you, you!
I DON'T NEED TO BE YOU!
you, you, you, you, you, you!
you, you, you, you, you, you!
I DON'T NEED TO BE YOU!

I don't need to fake, 'cause I'm more than a dummy!
I never found it funny!
I never hurt no one for who they are.
I don't need to play Hide and seek with nobody!
I'm not a bulls-eye-honey!
Just live and let me live!

I DON'T NEED TO BE YOU
you, you (WHY? Yeah),
you, you(WHY-WHY-WHY-WHY? Yeah!), you, you!
youuuu, ouuu... WHY? Yeah
you, you (WHY? Yeah),
you, you (WHY-WHY-WHY-WHY? Yeah), you, you

I DON'T NEED TO BE YOU!
