This Other Person by Tatiana Manaois Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2018

[Verse 1]
I tried to be someone else today
I thought I had it down, but it didn't work out
I guess I'm not the kinda girl who listens to the world
So, why did I try, to do what they were doing?
I let them in my head and all the things they said
Most of them were lies, so I don't know why

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to be somebody else, I think I understand
Why it always fell apart
I won't anyone else, it never works out how I plan
'Cause that's just not who I am

[Chorus]
Why do I want to be this other person?
I don't even know, oh, I just wanna know
Why does everyone have to be so damn perfect?
They don't even know, but that's just not who I am

[Post-Chorus]
Oh woah woah
[Verse 2]
I can't buy enough makeup
To hide all of my flaws
And every morning I wake up
Staring at the wall, feeling like I lost it all
'Cause every picture that I see is somehow perfectly
Perfectly beautiful
Are they as happy as they seem after all the surgeries?
Tell me was it worth it all? Was it worth it all?

[Pre-Chorus]
To try and be somebody else, I don't think you understand
It will always fell apart
So don't anyone else, it never get you very far
'Cause that's just not who you are

[Chorus]
Why do we want to be this other person?
We don't even know, oh, I just wanna know
Why does everyone have to be so damn perfect?
They don't even know, oh, that's just not who I am

[Post-Chorus]
That's not who I am

[Outro]
Won't try to fight it, won't try to hide it
That's not who I am
Don't try to fight it, don't try to hide it
That's not who you are
