[Intro]

I will never be you

No I will never be you or who you want me to be


[Verse 1]

All that I can recall from my youth are

The tears from my eyes falling

My guilt as I realised the truth

That I meant nothing to you

I was born as a tool, as a means to fulfil the ambitions that you never could


[Pre-Chorus]

Like a frost extinguishing a flame

I'll deny you everything


[Chorus]

Endeavour to be different

Make a name for myself

I'll burn away the ashes and I'll freeze away this house

I have fire, I have ice

I have you, it's a vice

I won't let you get the best of me

No I will never be you or who you want me to be


[Verse 2]

I'm a prisoner to the blood in my veins

I'm determined to break free

I won't carry the torch you left me

You brought mum's blood to a boil

She's gone, it's all your fault

Now I'm left with a scar

It's a constant reminder of the mark you left on me


[Pre-Chorus]

Like a frost extinguishing a flame

I'll deny you everything

With all my might I'll deny you everything


[Chorus]

Endeavour to be different

Make a name for myself

I'll burn away the ashes and I'll freeze away this house

I have fire, I have ice

I have you, it's a vice

I won't let you get the best of me

No I will never be you or who you want me to be


[Bridge]

Nothing will change that I'm your child

An ember from your flame

But I will ignite and surpass you

Never be the same

Will never be the same


[Chorus]

Endeavour to be different

I'll make a name for myself

I'll burn away the ashes and I'll freeze away this house

I have fire, I have ice

I have you, it's a vice

I won't let you get the best of me

No I will never be you or who you want me to be
