lyrics

again I try to mix this potion clear
dim the lights, keep it cool in here
the cure eludes me, time is passing
and you’re everything to lose
so careful calculations, much to fear
last time the same mistake cost me dearly
I wonder is the science mad
making me confused

I hear shouting in my head and memory it fades
my doubting is a constant there are no accolades
I know it’s wrong but still I try
to change myself for you

suddenly I turn into a whole other person
hear my own voice echo from somewhere outside
watching myself, it takes a hold like a curse
in here I’m Jekyll and out there I’m Hyde
why do I not realize this experiment will fail
and leave me barely alive

what’s wrong, why is it failing and not working this time
imperfect replication or a flaw in design
and I fear all that remains will be an empty shell
what if there’s no way back, now there are signs
my dangerous condition never knowing who am I
will I learn to accept what I have become for you

don’t want to be like a whole other person
hear my own voice echo from somewhere outside
watching myself when I’m with you
I hear my own voice echo from outside
don’t want to be like that with you
I hear my own voice echo like I’m Hyde
watching myself I know this will fail
and leave me barely alive

now I’m searching for me
don’t want to be like that . . .
