Unoriginal

I swear I've heard that played before
You said like I wouldn't know
It plays out in my head
And I think it should be said
I can never resist my admiration
Because it's what I want to hear
And want to sound like
It Revolves around my world like a satellite
You call it lies
I call it inspiration
That's all that I'm taking
A melody, keeps telling me

I wish I could be more like you, but it makes me unoriginal
Mirror the things you do but it makes me unoriginal
Your chords and structures were always so predictable
They say just be yourself, but it makes me unoriginal

There it is again, a familiar friend
To tell me this is not my place
You didn't make this, I already have that on my playlist
Everything comes from somewhere
Somehow
And someday you'll know
That your the same, it should never be a source of pain
You call it lies
I call it inspiration
That's all that I'm taking
A melody, keeps telling me

I wish I could be more like you, but it makes me unoriginal
Mirror the things you do but it makes me unoriginal
And It makes me so damn miserable

To compare me
To anyone out there
Please stop telling me I'm worthless
Giving your life purpose
You know you just boil me down with a single phrase
You sound just like someone else I know

I wish I could be more like you, but it makes me unoriginal
Mirror the things you do but it makes me unoriginal
Your chords and structures were always so predictable
They say just be yourself, but it makes me unoriginal
