Can I Be You?
[Chorus: ​yung van]
I cannot decide, so how can you?
Who I am inside, so how do you?

[Verse 1: thebreathingbackwards]
How do you know who you are?
How isn't everything hard?
How can you get out of bed everyday
With a smile inside of your heart?
Maybe not meant to go far
Maybe inherently flawed
Maybe the stress that I carry is carving up scars
And I feel the tension inside of my jaw
Holding to pain I can't let go
I wish I was trying my best, though
Honestly I wouldn't bet, no
I'd rather be up in my bed, yo
Sleeping all day, I live in the past
Rotting away, I know that it's sad
Dreamin' 'bout all the love that I had
But I can't go back

[Chorus: yung van]
I cannot decide, so how do you?
Who I am inside, so how do you?
And I'm not alright, so how are you?
I'm not me tonight, can I be you?
[Verse 2: thebreathingbackwards]
Damn it, I think that I'm broken
So fucking tired of hoping
So fucking sick of not knowing
Who I wanna be now it feels like I'm choking
I hate the face I was given
I swear that I'm bout to give in
Trying to deal with the doubt
That maybe my life ain't worth living

[Bridge: Yung Van]
I'm standing in front of my mirror, I hate what I see
I can't decide if I wanna be somebody else or I wanna be me

[Chorus: yung van]
I cannot decide, so how do you?
Who I am inside, so how do you?
And I'm not alright, so how are you?
I'm not me tonight, can I be you?
