[Chorus]

Twenty-five years of living like a charlatan

So convinced I'm living life in someone else's skin

Left obsessed with these thoughts that I foster

I am nothing but a fucking imposter


[Verse 1]

Championing my words

So undeserved

The desperate echo of a voice that's never meant to be heard

Under the spotlight

My skin starts to boil

A stranger in my reflection stares back at me

His gaze digs into my soul, I've lost the strength to see

Who I was and who I was meant to be

Now I don't know, in the hollow, what awaits for me?


[Refrain]

What awaits for me?

What awaits for me?

What awaits for me?

My life, a display of ignominy


[Chorus]

Half the world away

There's somebody better for my place

Who's more deserving of observing

Just cut the cord and set me free

So dig the hole and save my place

This world was never meant for me

I'll burn the bridge to make it brighter

I am nothing but an imposter


[Chorus]

Twenty-five years of living like a charlatan

So convinced I'm living life in someone else's skin

Left obsessed with these thoughts that I foster

I am nothing but a fucking imposter


[Verse 3]

Through all of this, I've never stopped

Waiting for the curtain to drop

For every weakness to be exposed

For the world to see my aching pose

Is this a fear or premonition?

Or destiny that I've imposed?

No matter what the outcome

I'll face it like I've always known


[Bridge]

I stood in the spotlight

And it burned through my soul

Only sure I was put here to suffer

I am nothing but an imposter


[Chorus]

Half the world away

There's somebody better for my place

Who's more deserving of observing

Just cut the cord and set me free

Dig the hole and save my place

Forget my name, forget my face

I'll burn the bridge to make it brighter
