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. 

[Pre-Chorus] 
Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it. 
See that line. Well I never should have crossed it. 
Stop right there. Well I never should have said 
that it's the very moment that 
I wish that I could take back. 

[Chorus] 
I'm sorry for the person I became. 
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change. 
I'm ready to try and 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’ll soon blow up. 

I heard the reverberating footsteps 
sinking 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. 

[Pre-Chorus x2] 
[Chorus] 

Who I am hates who I've been 
and who I am won’t take the second chance you gave me. 
Who I am hates who I’ve been 
‘cause who I’ve been only ever made me... 

So sorry for the person I became. 
So sorry that it took so long for me to change. 
I’m ready to try and never become that way again 
‘cause who I am hates who I’ve been. 
Who I am hates who I’ve been.
