I Will Not Be Myself - Deer Tick

I feel stuck between two places

Crust and the reward of your face

And I’m burning up inside

As I drive and twist the knife

Between us, well it should remain ours

Between their blood clots and scars

I won’t consider advice

When they carry the deadliest vice

And I feel that I ain’t done wrong

Yeah, it’s just when I have no place to go

Nobody can be themselves

If they just act like someone else

And you know that I’d wait an awful long time

But you gave up and shoved me aside

So gouge, gouge out my eyes

'Cause I know true love is blind

Now we’ll envy each other to death

To be able to finish each others sentences

And I lie awake

'Cause I gave up prescription drugs

My brain gets tired

As I lay watching too much time

So gouge, gouge out my eyes

'Cause I know true love is blind

And no one can be themselves

If they only act like someone else
