Who do you want to be?

'Who do you want to be?'

Myself

But how can I be myself if I don't even know who that is

I am an amalgamation of different facades

I can't even tell the difference between fantasy and reality

'Who do you want to be?'

I've only ever wanted to be myself

But people never want you to be yourself

They want you to be the person they think is who you are

'Who do you want to be?'

I can't tell you how many people think they know me

And I can't blame them

They know what I want them to know

'Who do you want to be?'

I could be myself

But I can't

It terrifies me, being genuine

'Who do you want to be?'

Not me

Never me

Oh god, anybody but me

What a silly little idea to be me

When that idea never existed
