someone elses dreams (re-written)

a rewritten peice

 Somebody else’s dreams

(New title: fake dreams)

 

Well I will follow my own heart

Turn away from the faces that tell me

What I am supposed to be

Well I'm walking with this heavy heart

And I can’t look at you

I’m not letting you down

Just not doing what you wanted me to

I'm tearing up everything I ever was

Building up to what I want to be

These eyes look in the mirror

All I want to see is me.

 

Well I can’t become what you want me to

I'm the only one who feels what I do

I'm only who I am

Forcing myself away from the crowd

I may not be on the right path

But it's my choice to make

And my dreams to break

 

Your dreams were forced upon my shoulders

It’s getting too much to bear

Looking at these disappointed faces

Every time I fail

Wishing I was someone else

Wishing I could do it all

I'm only who I am

And I’m getting happier

With being who I am

I thought I could do

What you wanted me to

I tried to be someone else

But it’s not happening

Take back what you want me to be

I’ll only ever be... me!

 

All that I know is who I am

All that I want is you to be happy

But I’ll not change my life for you to suit me

I’ll not change my life for anyone

Dreams forced upon my shoulders

It’s getting too much to bear

Looking at these disappointed faces

Every time I fail

Wishing I was someone else

Wishing I could do it all

I'm only who I am

I'm only going to be who I want to be,

These fake dreams are not a part of me

Hey this was really good! I've seen a few of your other songs and I like all of them. :D This has a good flow to it. I hate it when other people try to rule your life for you. Great work!
