Copycat

From the dust
Coming up around us
Loss of control
Stack and distracted
They're coming back now
Telling you who to be but
You don't wanna be that

Kick up a fuss
Cos you've had enough
Take back control
Don't show them your weakness
You're seeing clear now
So give 'em the third degree
I need you to speak

Straight from the heart
So they can't ignore you
They're under your skin
And their whole vibe bores you
No way
It's not right
Don't have to be a copycat
Copycat tonight

Sing it
I wanna hear you soar
Though I've seen it
A thousand times before
Every twist and turn only gets you more applause
And every heart in the room

Please know that
It pains me to the core
You have to hold back
And hide things you adore
You are better
Much better than that
Oh oh oh
Don't be a copycat

Through the dust clearing up around us
You've got the control
Don't get distracted
They've given up on telling you what to say
Now you get to speak

Straight from the heart
So they can't ignore you
They're under your skin
And their whole vibe bores you
No way
It's not right
Don't have to be a copycat
Copycat tonight

Sing it
I wanna hear you soar
Though I've seen it
A thousand times before
Every twist and turn only gets you more applause
And every heart in the room

Please know that
The approval that you seek
Stops you reaching
For something beautifully unique
Know you're better, much better than that
Whoah oh oh
Don't be a copycat

You're bearing witness to the birth of something new
Those fake litmus papers
They'll turn the world blue
Be your creator and see yourself grow
Better the haters you know

Sing it
I wanna hear you soar
Though I've seen it
A thousand times before
Every twist and turn only gets you more applause
And every heart in the room

Please know that
The approval that you seek
Stops you reaching
For something beautifully unique
Know you're better
Much better than that
Whoah oh oh
Don't be a copycat
