Another Me, Another You – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
Sinking in my bed
Staring at the ceiling while I try to sleep
The voices in my head are telling me the meaning of the secrets you keep
I can't forget the words you said they're stuck inside my head
I'm living a lie
I thought I knew everything about you
But this is something new
I didn't expect
I thought I knew all about myself
This is how it ends here
Another me another you
Never felt so weak
Haunted by the feelings and the memories
How could you let me down like this?
I can't forget the words you said
They're stuck inside my head
I'm living a lie
I thought I knew everything about you
But this is something new
I didn't expect it
I thought I knew all about myself
This is how it ends here
Another me another you
I might be blind but my heart can see
This situation doesn't work for me
I might be deaf but my heart can hear
I guess that something's got to give
I thought I knew everything about you
But this is something new
I didn't expect it
I thought I knew all about myself
This is how it ends here
Another me another you
