I Swear (Its Not Me)
Tear away this shroud of skin
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
Break away from this charade I'm in
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
This worn out body
Is all that you see
Its been used and abused
And I swear its not me
Detach from this weight
This old bag of bones
I'd leave all this behind
Everything that I own
Tear away this shroud of skin
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
Break away from this charade I'm in
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
God damn, what I would give
To break away from all I've done
Forget all those I've wronged
And the monster my skin's become
Scrape away these scabs that formed
Over my battle scars
I'd leak through pores, and in a burst of light
Become one among the stars
Rip away this shroud of skin
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
Extract myself from this facade I'm in
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
Break away from this charade I'm in
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
This worn out body
Is all that you see
Its been used and abused
And I swear its not me
Detach from this weight
This old bag of bones
I'd leave all this behind
Everything that I own
Tear away this shroud of skin
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
Break away from this charade I'm in
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
God damn, what I would give
To break away from all I've done
Forget all those I've wronged
And the monster my skin's become
Scrape away these scabs that formed
Over my battle scars
I'd leak through pores, and in a burst of light
Become one among the stars
Rip away this shroud of skin
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
Extract myself from this facade I'm in
I swear its not me
I swear its not me
