Somebody Else - Lione - Conti, Fabio Lione, ALESSANDRO CONTI

Simone Mularoni

I see you watching me

Standing by the door

(So) Shocked in disbelief your gaze gets lost

Trying to comprehend

How it came to this

But it’s all in vain

(Though) I’m aware that I let you down

That I destroyed the hopes you had for me

I can’t fit the mold that you put me in

So let me spill over

I need to believe it’s possible

To break these chains and

Leave this ordinary world behind

Even if you won’t be here with me

I don’t want to be somebody else

I don’t want to live a lie -release me-

I am only free when no-one's around

Free to be myself

No restrictions, no fault

Time and time again

I held back

I forced myself to hide behind the shield

This desperate cry for help

That no-one would hear

Tonight I will surrender

I’ll take the chance to be entirely me

And never go back

I don’t want to be somebody else

I don’t want to live a lie -release me-

I am only free when no-one's around

Free to be myself

No restrictions, no fault.
