Song lyrics

Send "Who I Am Hates Who I've Been" ringtones to your cell

I watched the proverbial sunrise 
Coming up over the Pacific and
You might think I'm losing my mind 
But I will shy away from the specifics 

Cause I don't want you to know where I am 
Cause then you'll see my heart 
In the saddest state it's ever been 
This is no place to try and live my life 

Stop right there
That's exactly where I lost it 
See that line 
Well I never should've crossed it 
Stop right there
Well I never should've said that 
It's the very moment that I wish that I could take back 

I'm sorry for the person I became 
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change 
I'm ready to make sure I never become that way again 
Cause who I am hates who I've been 
Who I am hates who I've been 

I talk to absolutely no one 
Couldn't keep to myself enough 
And the things bottled inside 
Have finally begun to create so much pressure 
That I'd soon blow up and

I heard the reverberating footsteps 
Synching up to the beating of my heart 
And I was positive that unless I got myself together 
I would watch me fall apart

And I can't let that happen again 
Cause then you'll see my heart 
In the saddest state it's ever been 
This is no place to try and live my life 

---------------------------------------------

(Radio edit doesn't have this verse!)

Stop right there 
That's exactly where I lost it 
See that line
I never should've crossed it 
Stop right there 
I never should've said that 
It's the very moment that I wish that I could take back 

---------------------------------------------

Stop right there
Thats exactly where I lost it 
See that line
Well I never should've crossed it 
Stop right there
Well I never should've said that 
It's the very moment that I wish that I could take back 

I'm sorry for the person I became 
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change 
I'm ready to make sure I never become that way again 
Cause who I am hates who I've been 
Who I am hates who I've been 
 
Who I am hates who I've been 
And who I am will take the second chance you gave me 
Who I am hates who I've been 
Cause who I've been only ever made me 

I'm sorry for the person I became 
So sorry that it took so long for me to change 
I'm ready to make sure I never become that way again 
Cause who I am hates who I've been 
Who I am hates who I've been

1 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal "I watched the proverbial sunrise Coming up over the Pacific and You might think I'm losing my mind But I will shy away from the specifics" My FAVORITE 4 lines on their whole CD. As well as: "I heard the reverberating foosteps Sinking up to the beating of my heart And I was positive that unless I got myself together I would watch me fall apart" I don't know why I like them so much. I just do. P.S. Relient K is amazing, don't even try to deny it

2 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Yeah!!!! One of the best songs I've ever heard! And I can relate to it too. "Stop right there! Thats exactly where I lost it! See that line! Well I never should've crossed it! Stop right there! Well I never should've said that its the very moment that i wish that i could take back!" As you could guess, I liked the prechorus best! And the music in the background. So the whole song yeah.
