lyrics

I tried to make you someone else
I lied, straight to myself

Do you hate me
Cause I called you out?
Say you want me
Did you have to scream so loud?

Wanted to be like you
Till I watched you drown
(wanted to be like, wanted to be like you)
I’m still on the boat
Looking around
(wanted to be like, wanted to be like you)

I don’t see a plan
I don’t see a plan
Looking for the land
I don’t see a plan

Wanted to be like you
Till I watched you drown

And it’s weird that I’m your age now
(your age now)
And I know so much better somehow

Did you date me
And think there’d be no doubt?
Ain’t it lovely
Until all the truth comes out

Wanted to be like you
Till I watched you drown
(wanted to be like, wanted to be like you)
I’m still on the boat
Looking around
(wanted to be like, wanted to be like you)

I don’t see a plan
I don’t see a plan
Looking for the land
I don’t see a plan

Wanted to be like you
Till I watched you drown

I’m not gonna take it
This time around
Still hoping you make it home
Safe and sound

Wanted to be like you
Till I watched you drown
(I wanted to, wanted to be like you)
I’m still on the boat
Looking around
(I wanted to, wanted to be like)

I don’t see a plan
I don’t see a plan
Looking for the land
I don’t see a plan

Wanted to be like you
Till I watched you drown
