Soundtracks - You're Not Me lyrics

You think I've got it all Everyone thinks I've got it made, well How come my only friends Are the ones I pay? No one understands What I would do to change my life For just one day Don't say if I were you (say if I were you) Or tell me what to do How things would be if you were in my shoes 'Cause you're not me You know what I need And it's not another serenade I get so tired of All the things you say Give me what I want If it only would I'd gladly Throw this all away Don't say if I were you (say if I were you) Or tell me what to do How things would be if you were in my shoes 'Cause you're not me Please take me as I am (take me as I am) This isn't what I planned I guess I don't expect that You could understand 'Cause you're not me I know you think you're being nice But spare me all your lame advise Time to play my hand and roll the dice Everybody's got their price For far too long I've been denied I'm making my move, so just step aside No one can say I never tried To do everything to get back my pride Yeah, you were never me Why can't you see That you're not me Don't say if I were you (say if I were you) Or tell me what to do How things would be if you were in my shoes "Cause you're not me Please, help me if you can (help me if you can) This isn't what I planned Guess I don't expect that You could understand 'Cause you're not me
