Lyrics

Take your next breath
Welcome to the show
One closer step to death in tow
Daddy's dirty secret
Mommy's favorite mistake
A promising future gone and laid to waste
A bastard version of the boy next door
A home that's labeled "broken"
A mother labeled "whore"
A lost boy in every sense of the word
And now, it is that boy's turn

Turn your back on me once
Shame on me, for trusting you
Turn your back on me twice
Fuck you



I'm crushed with all that I've been through
It's hard to know what this life's to do
Insignificant existence
Don't fail me now
This heavy heart has been turned inside out
I don't know where I'm going
But I know where I have been
A struggle to break free of the hole I'm in
I am the black sheep epitome
Another life is ruined because of me

(chorus)

I'm nothing like you
No matter how far I get off track
I'm nothing like you
I'm never looking back
I'm nothing like you
Just look at me now
I'm nothing like you
I'm a man, no thanks to you
